Abstract

Technologies are described for storing and reporting user activities within a computing environment. For example, bitsets (e.g., compressed and/or uncompressed bitsets) can be used to store activities (e.g., where each activity is a bit in the bitset in chronological order). Separate bitsets can be maintained for followable aspects of the activities (e.g., a separate bitset for each unique followable). Activity streams can be produced from the compressed bitsets (e.g., custom streams reflecting followables designated by users).
