  • Publication number: 20180060088
    Abstract: Techniques for group interactions are described. In at least some implementations, content associated with a group identity is presented based on priority settings for each user from a group of users. According to various implementations, priority settings are determined for each user based on an individual identity for each user and the group identity. Thus, a group of users can interact with content optimized for priority settings of the group associated with the group identity in a single location.
