The categorized user activity information is ranked according to relevance to the user by the ranking module or according to relevance to the user's contacts. An output generation moduledetermines when the groupings are complete. Activity summaries are then generated by the output generation module. The activity summary includes the categorized user activity information. The activity summary is sent for display on a user device of a user.
