In one embodiment, a method includes determining whether a user of the mobile computing device is currently actively using an application on the mobile computing device; and if the user is not currently actively using an application on the mobile computing device, then automatically and without user input providing for display to the user on the mobile computing device a user interface (UI) including a number of interactive elements that each correspond to one of a number of social-networking functionalities provided at least in part by a social-networking system remote from the mobile computing device.

Socialized dash

A social networking service presents information about the social network using multiple feeds in a user interface and provides mechanisms for filtering the content. A content feed includes the most recent content generated by the user's connections, and a highlights feed displays content based on importance and relevance. A user may add content to the social networking service through a composer interface. A user may also filter either or both of the content feed and the highlights feed using a filtering interface, which allows selective filtering of the feeds using one or more different types of filters, including as filtering by the source of the content, friends or networks, and/or content type.

Filtering content in a social networking service

In one embodiment, user information for a user of a social-networking system is retrieved. Device information is determined for a device associated with the user. Based on the device information or the user information, content associated with the user is retrieved. Using the retrieved content, a content board is composed for use in a cover feed displayed on the device The content board may comprise a background image. Finally, the content board is sent to the device. In one embodiment, updated information for content associated with the user is retrieved. The updated information may be associated with content that was included in a previously-provided content board. Using the updated information, an update to the previously-provided content boards is composed. Finally, the updates may be sent to the previously-provided content boards to the device.

Social cover feed interface

In one embodiment, a computing device may receive a structured document that includes a list of markers and place-marker elements corresponding to data objects of the structured document. Each marker in the list of markers corresponds to a subset of the place-marker elements. Without loading all the data objects, the device may determine a size of a scroll bar for a GUI based on size information associated with the place-marker elements. In response to detecting a scroll or resize event, an event handler may identify at least one marker in the list of markers whose corresponding subset of place-maker elements is within a portion of the structured document that is viewable through the graphical user interface. The handler may load the data objects corresponding to the subset of the place-marker elements corresponding to the identified marker. The identified marker may then be removed from the list of markers.

Infinite scrolling

In one embodiment, a client application renders a structured document in a graphical user interface, determines whether a select place marker element in the structured document is viewable within the graphical user interface; if the select place marker element is viewable, the client application retrieves and render the data object associated with the place marker element.
