In particular methods of example embodiments may include providing for display of a first representation of a first program, where the first representation includes a first interaction level; providing for display of an intermediate representation in response to receiving a first input, where the intermediate representation comprises an intermediate interaction level; and providing for display of a second representation of the first program in response to a second input, where the second representation includes a second interaction level and the second input is different from the first input. The intermediate representation of the first program may be presented in a size that is larger than the first representation of the first program.
