Abstract: Techniques for leveraging social information, including a social graph, to identify content likely to be of interest to a user are described. With some embodiments, a content enhancement server receives a request for web-based content that is to be presented with a web page that is being presented at a client computing device. The server will then identify some web-based content that is relevant to a topic or subject matter of the web page, and also popular as determined by analyzing some social information, including in some instances information relating to asocial graph of the viewing user, that is associated with the web-based content. Finally, some items of web-based content are selected, based on a combination of the content's relevance and popularity as indicated by the analysis of the social information. The selected web content is then communicated to the client computing device for presentation with the web page.

Abstract: Various techniques are disclosed for generating markup information to be displayed on a client computer system. A document (e.g. a web page) is selected for viewing via a web browser on the client system. Selected information relating to the document is parsed and analyzed using selected keyword information. In a specific implementation, the selected keyword information is provided by an entity other than the end user. Using the selected keyword information, specific context in the document is selected to be marked up. Markup operations may be implemented on at least a portion of the selected document context and displayed at the client system.
