Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium, and including a method for publishing content. The method comprises identifying a content item for publication. The method further comprises identifying one or more reviews associated with content included in the content item. The method further comprises evaluating a review including determining a rating for the content where determining the rating includes normalizing the rating to a first scale. The method further comprises extracting one or more relevant phrases from the review. The method further comprises publishing the content item along with a normalized rating and the one or more phrases.

Overlaying content items with third-party reviews

A method includes accessing, by a server computer, a plurality of electronic mail messages. The method also includes identifying, by the server computer, at least one of the electronic mail messages as a promoted electronic mail message. The method further includes outputting, for display at a client computing device, an electronic mail interface wherein the promoted electronic mail message is represented in a first position of a display order and a remainder of the electronic mail messages are represented subsequent to the promoted electronic mail message in the display order.

Methods for paid placement of promotional e-mail messages

Methods and systems for providing an advertisement based on a minimum number of exposures may include receiving selection criteria to specify a device identifier that meets the selection criteria, receiving a minimum number of exposures to the advertisement and an interval of time for the minimum number of exposures to occur, and a maximum aggregate bid value for each device identifier that is exposed to the advertisement for the minimum number of exposures, determining a probability that the device identifier reaches the number of exposures within the interval of time and within the maximum aggregate bid value, selecting a bid for each exposure for the device identifier based on the determined probability and the maximum aggregate bid value; and based on the selection of the bid, providing display data indicative of the advertisement.

Providing an advertisement based on a minimum number of exposures

A method includes accessing, by a server computer, a plurality of electronic mail messages; identifying, based on information contained in each electronic mail message, one or more actions that can be taken with respect to each electronic mail message; and outputting, for display at a client computing device, an electronic mail interface. The electronic mail interface includes a message preview element for each electronic mail message. Each message preview element includes an interface element for causing performance of the action for each electronic mail message.

Methods for generating e-mail message interfaces

Systems and methods of providing information via a computer network are provided. A request for content to display with a resource can be received via a computer network at a data processing system. The request can include user information and resource information. The data processing system can retrieve a timestamp of a last request for content from a user associated with the user information. The data processing system can determine if a difference between current time and the timestamp reaches a threshold, and can retrieve a plurality of content items based at least in part on whether the threshold is reached and at least one attribute of the content items. The data processing system can select at least one content item and provide it for display with the resource. The data processing system can store the current time as the timestamp of the last request for content from the user.
