Abstract
A prioritized list of items available via an electronic user device is provided to a user. The user has relations categorized in a social graph for which activity is crawled to detect interactive behavior with objects made by the relations via respective electronic devices. The prioritizing includes identifying items for the list; determining a relative level of the user's contextual affinity with one or more of the list items, contextual affinity to a list item characterized by connectedness of a context of the user's current use of the electronic user device to a manner in which a relation has had interactive behavior with one of the objects that corresponds to the list item; and ranking the list items according to the relative levels of affinity.
