Device specific handling of user interface components

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving from a server, by a mobile computing device, real-time activity stories for display by the mobile computing device. The real-time activity stories are sent automatically by the server to the mobile computing device while a user is interacting with the mobile computing device. The method also includes receiving from the server, by the mobile computing device, news-feed stories for display by the mobile computing device. The news-feed stories are sent by the server to the mobile computing device in response to requests from the mobile computing device for the news-feed stories.
