A method for bandwidth-sensitive content sharing can begin with the establishment of a content sharing session between two or more end-user devices by a bandwidth-sensitive content sharing system. At least one of the two or more end-user devices can be a mobile device having a network constraint and/or a data usage constraint. A bandwidth limitation can be determined for the mobile device from network connection data and user data. The bandwidth limitation can indicate a restriction to content sections of a content item the mobile device is to receive during the content sharing session. The content item shared with the mobile device can be filtered based upon a priority value for each content section of the content item. A content section can be an identifiable and discrete encapsulation of data within the content item. The filtered content item can satisfy the bandwidth limitation of the mobile device.

In a method for selecting a game element of a game and adjusting the game element during execution of the game, a processor retrieves a plurality of received game element feedback data from a plurality of users of a game, wherein the plurality of received game element feedback data was selected from a list of possible game elements. A processor selects the game element to be adjusted, based upon the plurality of received game element feedback data. A processor causes the game element to be adjusted during execution of the game.

Game adjustments through crowdsourcing

An approach is provided to control information display at an augmented reality device. In the approach, a biometric value is received from a biometric input device. The biometric input device is a device that receives biometric data from a user of the augmented reality device. The received biometric value is compared to a number of previously established biometric input ranges that correspond to the user. Each of the biometric input ranges corresponds to a different display policy. The comparison identifies a selected display policy. The display detail of the augmented reality device is then automatically set according to the selected display policy.
