A method can include executing at least two applications, wherein at least one of the two applications is for providing social media information. The acts can also include receiving a signal in response to a detected input gesture indicative of a selection of an entity. The selection of the entity can be performed via another one of the two applications. The acts can also include integrating the two applications such that social media information is generated about the entity. The integration can be in response to receiving the signal, and the social media information can include information from one or more social networking websites. The acts can also include displaying the social media information about the entity.

Systems, apparatus, methods and computer-readable storage media for facilitating integrated messaging, contacts and social media for a selected entity

This document describes tools capable of differentiating a superset of entities from which a user may receive current updates effective to provide current updates for only some of the entities of the superset. In one embodiment, for example, the tools enable a user of a mobile device to select a set of entities from which the user will automatically receive updates that are current, easily accessible, and visible at-a-glance. The tools may forgo providing current updates for entities that are not selected by the user, though the tools may provide these updates when explicitly requested by the user or at particular times or events.

Current updates

Systems, apparatus and methods are provided. In some embodiments, a computer-implemented method is provided. The computer-implemented method can include executing, using at least one processor, computer-readable instructions for performing various acts. The acts can include executing at least two applications, wherein at least one of the two applications is for providing social media information. The acts can also include receiving a signal in response to a detected input gesture indicative of a selection of an entity. The selection of the entity can be performed via another one of the two applications. The acts can also include integrating the two applications such that social media information is generated about the entity. The integration can be in response to receiving the signal, and the social media information can include information from one or more social networking websites. The acts can also include displaying the social media information about the entity.

Embodiments are disclosed that relate to facilitating navigation through a predefined list of websites, such as a list of favorite websites. One embodiment provides a method of operating a web browser. The method comprises receiving a user input corresponding to a web address list navigation command, and sending to the display device a representation of a navigational overlay that illustrates a change of a current location within a predefined list of web addresses responsive to the user input. The method further comprises, after sending the representation of the navigational overlay, ceasing sending of the representation of the navigational overlay to the display device, and sending to the display device a representation of website content obtained from a web address at the current location within the predefined list of web addresses.
