Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a registration request from an application running on a client system. The registration request includes a messaging token associated with a message-distribution server. In response to the received registration request, the messaging token is registered to a user profile on a social-networking system. A push notification is generated for display at the client system. The push notification and the messaging token are sent to the message-distribution server, where the messaging token identifies the client system to the message-distribution server for delivery of the push notification.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes providing an application programming interface (API) to an application running on a client system. The API is provided based on a user of the client system being logged in to a social-networking system on the application. A first request is received from the application, and the first request includes a new messaging token and a request to register the new messaging token to a user profile of the user on the social-networking system. A verification token is sent to the application. A second request is received from the application, and the second request includes the verification token and context information of the application. The second request is sent by the application using the API. In response to the received requests, a registration of the user profile is updated by discarding a previously-registered messaging token and registering the new messaging token to the user profile.

Abstract: Techniques for multi-protocol peer-to-peer connection are described. An apparatus may comprise a discovery component to discover a remote device using a first protocol, and receive discovery information from the remote device, the discovery information including protocol information. The apparatus may comprise an authentication component to authenticate the remote device. The apparatus may comprise a connection component to establish a peer-to-peer connection with the remote device using a second protocol based on the protocol information. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
