A method includes, but is not limited to any combination of: determining a plurality of third-party content elements based in part on information associated with a request for third-party content. The request for third-party content may be received from a web browser displaying a first webpage to a user. A first element from the plurality of determined third-party content elements is transmitted to the web browser. Upon receiving from the web browser a second request for third-party content including user interaction data with the first element, data associated with the determined plurality of third-party content elements is updated based at least in part on the user interaction data. A second third-party element from the plurality of updated third-party content elements is transmitted to the web browser.

System for creating managing and displaying multi-frame based ads on mobile devices

A method of providing services to computing devices includes establishing a connection over the Internet with a computing device; receiving data from the computing device during the connection; extracting a signal from the data received from the computing device; estimating a relative age of the computing device based on the extracted signal; selecting a service from a plurality of services based on the estimated relative age of the computing device; and providing the selected service to the computing device.

Methods and systems for identifying new computers and providing matching services

Methods, systems, and apparatus, include computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium, and include a method for providing content. The method includes receiving a request for content from a requesting device that includes an associated IP address and determining that the received request is appropriate for clustering based on the IP address. The method further includes determining whether the received request is already associated with a cluster including, and when not, returning a cluster cookie to the requesting device and storing cluster information including the IP address associated with the requesting device; otherwise creating a cluster including returning a cluster cookie to the requesting device and storing in a data set associated with the cluster information including the IP address associated with the requesting device. The method further includes providing a response to the received request based on the data set for an associated cluster.

Providing content to devices in a cluster

A method and system provide, using a microprocessor of computing device associated with a web publisher, content including a web page. The method includes accessing, by the web publisher, a list including at least one extension associated with a web browser rendering the content at a second computing device, and a key generated based on the content, the key being generated at a specific time after the providing. The method includes comparing a value associated with the key to an expected value to determine a difference between the key and the expected value.

System for managing extension modifications to web pages

Mobile device application usage history is collected across a plurality of mobile device applications. A mobile device application usage trigger event is received. For each of a plurality of candidate push notifications, a quality score adjustment is determined as a function of the collected mobile device application usage history and the trigger event. An opportunity to push a notification to the first mobile device is auctioned based on the adjusted quality scores. The notification of the auction winner is pushed to the first mobile device.

Mobile device push notification using mobile application usage history

A system includes a processor configured to execute a web browser in a first browser execution process initiated by an operating system of the system. The system includes a browser extension installed in the web browser, the browser extension including a markup language file and a file specifying at least one type of action related to a page element on which the browser extension seeks to act. The web browser may be configured to receive a set of rules from a web publisher associated with a first web page prior to rendering the first web page, determine based on the file, without loading the browser extension, that the browser extension is configured to implement a first action prohibited by the set of rules, and restrict the browser extension from implementing the first action on the first web page.
