Abstract
In one embodiment, a first computing device accesses a notification to be pushed to a second computing device associated with a user; computes a score for the notification based at least in part on a current level of tolerance of the user to notifications pushed to the second computing device; and if the score is above a predetermined threshold, then pushes the notification to the second computing device.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- by one or more first computing devices,
- accessing a notification to be pushed to a second computing device associated with a user;
- computing a score for the notification based at least in part on a current level of tolerance of the user to notifications pushed to the second computing device;
- and
- if the score is above a predetermined threshold, then pushing the notification to the second computing device.
2 more elements
A first system comprising:
- a memory comprising instructions executable by one or more processors;
- and
- the one or more processors coupled to the memory and operable to execute the instructions, the one or more processors being operable when executing the instructions to:
- access a notification to be pushed to a second system associated with a user;
- compute a score for the notification based at least in part on a current level of tolerance of the user to notifications pushed to the second system;
- and
- if the score is above a predetermined threshold, then push the notification to the second system.
4 more elements
One or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying software operable when executed by one or more first computer systems to:
- access a notification to be pushed to a second computer system associated with a user;
- compute a score for the notification based at least in part on a current level of tolerance of the user to notifications pushed to the second computer system;
- and
- if the score is above a predetermined threshold, then push the notification to the second computer system.
