In non-limiting examples of the present disclosure, systems, methods and devices for collecting and surfacing web content are provided. Web content from a webpage may be displayed in a web browser. A type associated with the webpage may be identified. An indication to add a new section corresponding to the webpage to a content collection pane may be received. A plurality of elements on the webpage may be identified based on the identified type associated with the webpage. A subset of web content from the webpage corresponding to the plurality of elements may be extracted. The new section may be added to the content collection pane, wherein the new section comprises the subset of web content extracted from the webpage.

A technique is described herein for facilitating movement of graphical objects across display screens. In one manner of operation, the method includes: displaying a representation of a first movement as a user moves a graphical object across a source screen; detecting that the user has moved the graphical object into a graphical source portal associated with the source screen; associating the graphical object with two or more graphical destination portals provided by the plural display screens, in addition to the graphical source portal, such that the graphical object is accessible from the graphical source portal and any graphical destination portal; detecting that the user has removed the graphical object from a chosen graphical portal in a chosen screen; displaying the graphical object as having been removed from all graphical portals; and displaying a second movement as the user moves the graphical object across the chosen screen to a final destination.

A gesture language for a device with multiple touch surfaces is described. Generally, a series of new touch input models is described that includes touch input interactions on two disjoint touch-sensitive surfaces. For example, a mobile device can include a primary display on a 'front' side of the device, and a secondary display or touch-sensitive surface on the 'back' side of the device, such as a surface that is opposite the primary display. Accordingly, the gesture language can include a series of &#x201c;back touch&#x201d; interactions with the touch-sensitive surface on the backside of the device. Example interactions include direct and indirect touch input on the back side, as well as simultaneous touch input on both sides of the device.

A technique is described herein for helping a user move a source object that appears on a user interface presentation to a target destination. The technique involves performing semantic analysis on both the source object and at least one candidate target destination. The semantic analysis yields a score that reflects the relationship between the source object and the candidate target destination. The technique then presents a representation of the candidate target destination that is visually enhanced to an extent that is dependent on its output score. The technique then allows the user to move the source object to a representation of a selected target destination, whereupon it becomes associated with the target destination. The technique can produce the enhanced representation by changing a characteristic of an on-screen target identifier (that already exists on the user interface presentation), or by displaying a transient target identifier.

Facilitating movement of objects using semantic analysis and target identifiers

Techniques are described herein that are capable of making a state-based determination of information to be displayed on a screen region of a hinge that is coupled to other screen regions. For instance, a state of a hinge that is coupled between a first screen region and a second screen region may be determined. Information that is to be displayed on a third screen region that is provided on the hinge may be determine based at least in part on the state of the hinge.
