Abstract: Particular embodiments provide a plurality of image elements arranged in a display layout. When user input selecting one of the image elements is received, a first animation sequence for an information panel associated with the selected image element may be displayed, wherein the information panel swings down from a bottom edge of the selected image element. As the information swings down, the selected image element may also be enlarged until it reaches a pre-determined size with respect to a display of the computing device. In response to receiving user input dismissing the selected image element, another animation sequence may shrink the selected image element while showing the information panel swinging up and eventually disappearing.

Abstract: Particular embodiments provide a plurality of image elements arranged in a display layout. First user input selecting one of the image elements may be received, wherein the selected image element is at a particular position in the display layout. In response to the first user input, a first animation sequence to enlarge the selected image element until the selected image element reaches a pre-determined size with respect to a display of the computing device may be displayed. Second user input dismissing the selected image element may be received. In response to the second user input, a second animation sequence to shrink the selected image element may be displayed. Finally, the display layout may be provided for presentation, wherein the selected image element is shown within the display layout in the particular position.

Abstract: A social networking system provides a user with a feed of content items associated with other users connected to the user via the social networking system. Additionally, the social networking system identifies additional content items for presentation to the user and generates groups of additional content items so each group includes content items having a characteristic associated with the group. A scoring function is applied to each group to determine an expected amount of user interaction with content items in the group. Based on the expected amounts of user interaction, a featured content item is selected from each group. When a group of the additional content items is presented, the featured content item is visually distinguished from other content items in the group.

Abstract: A social networking system provides a user with a feed of content items associated with other users connected to the user via the social networking system. Additionally, the social networking system identifies additional content items having various characteristics to the user. If the user selects an additional content item, further content items having one or more characteristics matching the selected additional content item are identified and presented to the user along with the additional content item. For example, a size of the selected additional content item is increased and the further content items are presented in a smaller size proximate to the selected additional content item.

Abstract: A social networking system provides a user with a feed of content items associated with other users connected to the user via the social networking system. Additionally, the social networking system identifies additional content items for presentation to the user and generates an additional feed including the additional content items. The additional content items may be determined by identifying content items having various characteristics and scoring the content items based on the characteristics. Content items having at least a threshold score are identified as additional content items. Examples of characteristics of content items include users providing content items to the social networking system, locations associated with social networking system users, and interaction with content items by social networking system users. In some embodiments, the additional feed modifies presentation of the additional content items based on their associated scores.

Abstract: A social networking system identifies one or more additional users to be presented with a content item to a user presenting the content item (“sending user”). Information maintained by the social networking system and describing prior interaction between the sending user and various additional users is retrieved. Based on the prior interaction between the sending user and the additional users, one or more additional users are identified to the sending user as potential recipients for the content item. For example, a frequency of interaction between the user and additional users, affinity between the user and various additional users, or other suitable information is used to identify potential recipients of the content item.
