Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention allow applications developers to change user experiences within an application without updating the application by relying on remote interface templates to create user experiences. The application code includes entry points to various remote interface templates stored on a remote device. The remote interface templates are consumed by the application to render content blocks that are all, or part of, the application's interface. The remote interface templates may be changed seamlessly at the remote device allowing the user to enjoy the updated interface without interruption the next time the application is opened.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for presenting and navigating content having varying properties. One or more local or networked providers are searched for content objects. Content objects include associated metadata and may be stored within a content container. Each content object is displayed separately from its associated content container. Displayed content objects may be grouped and filtered based upon the associated metadata. Displayed content objects may also be grouped and filtered based upon the provider from which they were retrieved. Selection of a content object causes the content container associated with the selected content object to be displayed. Alternately, selection of a content object may cause a preview of the selected content object and the metadata associated with the selected content object to be displayed.

Abstract: Microwork customers may create microtasks and publish them with a microwork broker. Microwork providers may discover published microtasks and complete them in exchange for specified compensation. Microtask creation, publication, discovery and workflow facilities may be integrated into document editors, productivity tools, and the like. To facilitate trust and efficiency, particularly in the context of large public microwork brokers, public reputations may be maintained for microwork participants by the microwork broker. Distinct reputations may be maintained with respect to particular microwork categories. Discovery of microtasks, access to microtasks, selection of providers, and even compensation may be based on reputation.
