Approaches enable three-dimensional (3D) display and interaction with interfaces (such as a webpage, an application, etc.) when the device is operating in a 3D view mode. For example, interface elements can be highlighted, emphasized, animated, or otherwise altered in appearance, and/or arrangement in the renderings of those interfaces based at least in part on an orientation of the device or a position of a user using the device. Further, the 3D view mode can provide for an animated 3D departure and appearance of elements as the device navigates from a current page to a new page. Further still, approaches provide for the ability to specify 3D attributes (such as the appearance, action, etc.) of the interface elements. In this way, a developer of such interfaces can use information (e.g., tags, CSS, JavaScript, etc.) to specify a 3D appearance change to be applied to at least one interface element when the 3D view mode is activated.

Approaches for three-dimensional object display used in content navigation

Approaches for three-dimensional object display

Some implementations include displaying icons on a home screen of a computing device based, at least in part, on a predicted likelihood that an individual one of the icons will be selected. The predicted likelihoods may be determined based on a current time of day, a geo-location of the computing device, a current mode of the computing device, or the like.

User interface with media content prediction

Techniques for increasing the efficacy of an affiliate marketing program are described herein. These techniques may allow participants of the affiliate marketing program to easily create links to content that a content site offers. To do so, the content site may determine whether a user that requests content from the site is a participant of the program or a non-participant. Based at least in part on determining that the requesting user is a participant, the content site may serve the requested content in addition to a mechanism for creating links to the content. Furthermore, the mechanism may also illustrate or otherwise include content that is customized based on the content that the participant requests and/or based on an identity of the participant.

Link creation techniques

Initiating a functionality of an electronic device using the device cover and/or other device inputs is described herein. In some implementations, a sequence of operations may be stored on the device to initiate a specific functionality of the device. Each operation in the sequence may correspond to a manipulation of a position of a device cover or an input from a device input component. Once the device determines that two or more received operations complete the stored sequence, the specific functionality of the device may be initiated.
