Content recommendation system

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the computer-readable storage medium including instructions that when executed by a device including a processor and memory, uniquely configure the memory and cause the device to:

• operate a tracking control in the digital communication network to track activity of the digital communication device in a context of a digital content event;
• operate a timer in conjunction with the activity to form a time-stamped set of ranking controls;
• attenuate the time-stamped set of ranking controls according to an elapsed time;
• apply the time-stamped set of ranking controls and content inputs from a digital content manager to operate a ranking control and digital filter to generate a control interface for the digital communication device, the control interface comprising a plurality of individually operable controls;
• correlating the digital content event to serial content comprising a plurality of episodes based on a threshold viewing level over the plurality of episodes represented in the time-stamped set of ranking controls;
• detecting full-episode gaps in the activity associated with the serial content represented in the time-stamped set of ranking controls;
• and
• adapting the control interface with controls corresponding to the full-episode gaps.
