Abstract: Technologies for automated cropping and sharing of images include an imaging device configured to capture a digital image, recognize one or more subjects represented in the image, determine the social network groups associated with the subjects of the digital image, and crop the digital image to generate one or more sub-images. Each of the sub-images includes subjects associated with a particular social network group. Each of the sub-images may be shared with the relevant social network group. Subjects may include persons, objects, or events, and may be recognized through computer vision techniques as well as using contextual data. The imaging device may receive social network data from one or more social network servers, which may be used to determine the relevant social network groups. The imaging device may also exclude subjects from the cropped sub-images based on one or more content policies. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A mechanism is described for facilitating dynamic user-based customization of advertisement content at computing devices according to one embodiment. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes receiving an advertiser content to be published on an avatar list, where the advertiser content is associated with an advertising entity, and verifying the advertiser content for publication, where verifying further includes assigning a ranking to the advertiser content. The ranking represents a position on the avatar list. The method may further include transmitting a publication notification identifying the ranking assigned to the advertiser content, and facilitating an auction for bidding to allow the advertising entity to obtain a higher ranking for the advertiser content than the assigned ranking, if the assigned ranking is rejected by the advertising entity.

Abstract: Embodiments of apparatus and methods for contextual display are described. In embodiments, an apparatus for contextual display may include a processor, a communication module, and a contextual display module. The contextual display module may be configured to retrieve contextual information of a user having permission to view a file, and select a device among multiple devices associated with the user to display the file based at least in part on the contextual information of the user. The communication module may be configured to receive and send the file to the user. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
