A system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method that includes identifying a plurality of devices associated with a computing device, identifying status information from each device of the plurality of devices, and identifying presentation features for each device of the plurality of devices. The method further includes receiving presentation information indicating a setting to present first status information from a first device of the plurality of devices via a selected device of the plurality of devices, wherein the first status is presented on the selected device by a selected presentation feature of the selected device. Additional embodiments are disclosed.

Interdevice communication management within an ecosystem of accessories

Described herein are techniques for adding adaptive annotations to an electronic content item. For example, a user may insert an annotation by hand drawing the annotation over the content of the content item, in white space around the content, or within an annotation window. The user may also anchor, associate, or link annotations to particular portion of the content item, such that when the content is displayed or rendered on a display of an electronic device, the annotation appears in-line with the content and adjacent to the associated portion.

Adaptive annotations

A peripheral device is configured to obtain configuration information from user equipment. The configuration information is for the peripheral device, wherein during receipt of the configuration information the peripheral device is not in communication with the user equipment. The configuration information is based on selections obtained via the user equipment and associated with operational parameters for the peripheral device. The configuration information is stored in a memory that is remote from the user equipment. Provisioning information is provided to the user equipment, wherein the provisioning information is associated with the configuration information and wherein the provisioning information enables configuration of the peripheral device with the operational parameters.

System and method for offline configuring of a gaming accessory

Systems and methods are described for generating, displaying, and navigating contextual user interfaces. A contextual user interface is associated with a particular context, such as a particular provider of items. A contextual user interface generation service may generate a contextual user interface for a particular provider, or may generate a contextual user interface for an aggregate context that includes multiple providers. A user interface element may be provided for navigating from one context to another, and a contextual user interface may be displayed or updated as the selected context changes. The contextual user interface may display context-specific information, such as provider-specific items, criteria, or other information, and may automatically change the displayed context as context-specific items are selected.

Contextual interface for item selection

A metadata item may be generated that includes metadata content corresponding to a selected portion of digital content stored on a first device, the metadata item may be associated with a first user profile, and the metadata item may be distributed to a second user device storing the digital content such that the metadata item can be accessed via a second user profile and rendered on the second user device in association with the digital content. In this manner, metadata content corresponding to digital content may be shared across user profiles that access the digital content. In addition, a collaborative content item may be generated that includes collaborative content associated with a word or phrase in digital content and that is editable by multiple user profiles.

Generation and distribution of collaborative content associated with digital content

Electronic content such as an electronic book (e-book) that is referenced in or otherwise related to other content such as website content is identified, and a visual representation of the electronic content is generated. The visual representation is presented in conjunction with the website content, and a reader application for previewing the electronic content is launched via user interaction with the visual representation. Exiting the reader application causes a browser application that is rendering the website content to be automatically returned to a foreground state. A variety of actions are enabled via interaction with the reader application such as purchasing the electronic content, sharing the electronic content, or downloading a sample preview of the electronic content for later consumption.

Previewing electronic content within third-party websites

Some implementations include identifying conflicts between multiple layers of supplementary content associated with a digital work (e.g., an electronic book). For individual conflicts between layers of supplementary content at one or more locations within the digital work, conflicts between layers may be resolved in favor of a higher priority layer. Upon resolution of the conflict, information associated with the higher priority layer for supplementing content at a particular location in the digital work may be determined. A visual identifier of the higher priority layer may be displayed along with content associated with the digital work at the particular location.

Supplementary content layers

Systems and methods are provided herein for providing item information via a network page of an electronic marketplace. A set of items associated with a potential order of an electronic marketplace may be obtained. The set of items may be associated with a threshold condition that must be met prior to enabling completion of the potential order. Item information associated with the set of items, electronic representations of a portion of a plurality of related items, and a remainder value may be displayed on a network page provided by a mobile device. The remainder value may indicate a difference between a current state of the set of items and the threshold condition. A request to associate a related item of the plurality of related items with the potential order may be received. The set of items may be updated and the remainder value may be modified based on the update.

Techniques for providing electronic endcap items

Systems and methods are described for providing a context interaction determination service. A context interaction determination service may determine that a user has selected a context-specific item in a contextual user interface, and may notify the user that a more specific context is available and provide additional information regarding the new context. A contextual user interface may be associated with a context, which in turn may be associated with a provider or providers of items. The context interaction determination service may determine that a selected item is associated with a particular provider and context, and that a set of previously selected items does not include any items associated with that context. The context interaction determination service may thus notify the user of the interaction with the new context, display a user interface or provider-specific criteria for the new context, or provide other information regarding the new context.
