Abstract: Techniques are provided for sharing data among computing devices. In one technique, a first device broadcasts wireless data and establishes a wireless connection with a second device. The first device receives authorization data and first entity data from the second device. The first device authorizes the second device based on the authorization data. The first device then sends second entity data through the wireless connection to the second computing device. The first device sends the first entity data over a network to a remote server system. The first device receives, from the remote server system, entity data that pertains to an entity that is identified by the first entity data. The first device may then display at least a portion of the entity data on a screen of the first device.

Abstract: In some embodiments, social activity data corresponding to a first user and a second user of an online social networking service is accessed, with the social activity data comprising one or more signals, and with each of the one or more signals indicating a corresponding activity of the first user with respect to the second user, and a relationship temperature value for the first user is calculated based on the social activity data, with the calculating of the relationship temperature value comprising weighting each of the one or more signals inversely proportional to an amount of time that has elapsed since the corresponding activity of the corresponding signal has occurred. The relationship temperature value is stored in a database in association with the first user or a function of the online social networking service is performed based on the relationship temperature value.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a relationship temperature value for a first user of an online social networking service is accessed or received. The relationship temperature value indicates a measurement of activity of the first user with respect to one or more other users of the online social networking service. In some example embodiments, a function of the online social networking service is performed based on the relationship temperature value. In some example embodiments, the function comprises generating content for display to the first user.
