Techniques for enhancing content on a mobile device are described. A method may include monitoring an input component for the mobile device and detecting a first control directive from the input component, the first control directive to instruct selection of a content portion from a user interface of a first application executing on the mobile device. The method may continue by receiving a second control directive to select the content portion; performing an operation on the selected content portion by a second application different from the first application; and presenting results of the operation on a display of the mobile device. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
