Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided that enable users to interact with displayed content. An extensible user interface (UI) model framework is provided that enables a user device to provide multiple content feedback mechanisms at the same time, such as touch, non-touch, motion, gestures, voice, etc. A user is enabled to choose a most comfortable way for the user to interact with the displayed content using the user device, and an indication of the interaction may be sent to a content provider. The content provider may provide next content for display based on the received feedback. The user device may enable the user to use one or more feedback mechanisms at any time, including a combination of feedback mechanisms. Additional interaction modules can be plugged in to enable any number of additional ways of interacting with displayed content on the user device.
