Abstract: Message content is scaled to support rich messaging. Devices and associated messaging systems can support various levels of content richness or fidelity. Message content scaling is employed to ensure sharing of content in as rich a manner as possible given limitations associated with various messaging systems, among other things. Messages can be scaled down or degraded, for instance where communicating devices do not support high fidelity content being transmitted. Alternatively, messages can be scaled up or enriched in cases, where low fidelity content is transmitted to a device supporting richer content, for example.

Abstract: A messaging platform operates as a mobile device environment giving the user the ability to search for and add content into text message as well as to gain access to other applications and functionality. The messaging platform presents a user interface for construction messages and a trey that includes a wide variety of selectable elements including movies, photos, etc. The messaging platform enables live video chatting within the text GUI.

Abstract: A tumbler-style graphical user interfaces (TSGUI) facilitates high context rapid selection of content objects from at least tumbler components. Selection of content objects can relate to a path for a memory to access a related final information. The TSGUI can be employed in mobile computing devices, including telephonic mobile computing devices. Optionally, a TSGUI of a mobile device can facilitate access to content in relation to messaging applications native to the mobile device.
