Abstract: In some embodiments, a shared presentation, which includes a set of spatial regions, is transmitted to user devices associated with users. Then, based on a user input indicating a first spatial region of the shared presentation for a first user, first auxiliary data (e.g., auxiliary video stream of the shared presentation) that corresponds to the first spatial region is generated. Moreover, based on the user input indicating the first user, a first user device associated with the first user is caused to display the first spatial region at a first time without displaying one or more other spatial regions of the set of spatial regions at the first time. As an example, the first auxiliary data is transmitted to the first user device, which causes the first user device to display the first spatial region without displaying the other spatial regions.

Abstract: Devices often receive content items to be saved for later presentation to a user. In some instances, the content of the message is analyzed to retrieve supplemental information from external data sources, such as a map to a location discussed in a message. However, such supplementing often fails to reflect the personal context of the content item to the user, who may not easily recall the associated personal context when the content item is later presented. Instead, for a content item to be saved, a device may evaluate personal data sources to identify the personal context of the content item to the user, and add personal context annotations to a content item record of the saved content item. Later, during a presentation of the content item to the user, the personal context annotations may be included as a reflection of the personal context of the content item to the user.
