The subject matter of this specification can be implemented in, among other things, a computer-implemented method that includes identifying metadata related to television programming being presented on a display device. The method further includes extracting one or more keywords from the metadata. The method further includes generating multiple search suggestions based on the keywords and first search results based on one or more of the search suggestions. The method further includes presenting the search suggestions and the first search results together on the display device.

Television related searching

A messaging system receives a message sent by an enterprise to an individual user. The message has an associated message tag describing the content of the message. The messaging system applies a filtering policy to the message. The filtering policy selectively blocks messages sent by enterprises to users. The filtering policy allows the message having the associated tag to pass through the filter even though the message might otherwise violate the filtering policy. The messaging system samples a subset of tagged messages from enterprises and analyzes the messages for compliance with a tagging policy. The messaging system may also train one or more tag models to recognize the correct tags for the messages.

Enforcing messaging policies using tags

A current context of a geographic application executing on a user device is determined. Commercial geographic content is selected for presentation at the user device based at least in part on the determined current context, and the commercial geographic content is provided to the user device via a communication network. A first indication is received, indicating that the commercial geographic content was presented at a first level of detail via a user interface of the user device. In response to the first indication, a first metric is updated. As second indication is received, indicating that the commercial geographic content was presented at a second level of detail via the user interface of the user device in response to user input, where the second level of detail is higher than the first level of detail. A second metric is updated in response to the second indication.

Providing commercial information in a geographic application

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products are provided for television advertisement bidding that allows advertisers to target and/or exclude specific television programs.

Additional programs can also be identified for advertising based on similar targeting criteria, such as demographics, ratings, and genre.
