5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by the system, updated status information for the second device; and

responsive to the receiving, providing, by the system, the updated status information to the presentation feature of the first device.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the condition is associated with a threshold, and wherein the updated status information indicates that the threshold has been reached.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the presentation feature of the first device is a primary presentation feature for presenting the status information, and wherein the associating further comprises:

selecting a third device of the plurality of devices; and

selecting a presentation feature of the third device as an alternate presentation feature for presenting the status information.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the status information is presented by both the primary presentation feature and the alternate presentation feature.

9. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

receiving, by the system, updated status information for the second device;

determining, by the system, whether the primary presentation feature is available; and

responsive to the primary presentation feature not being available, providing, by the system, the updated status information to the alternate presentation feature.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the status information is related to a game program executing on a computing device, and wherein the status information is provided to a presentation feature of a user device other than the computing device.

11. A device comprising:

a processing system including a processor; and

a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations comprising:

identifying a plurality of devices associated with the processing system, each of the plurality of devices having a status information indicator for providing status information indicative of a condition associated with that device;

identifying a plurality of presentation features for the plurality of devices;

associating, for each device of the plurality of devices, the status information indicator with a presentation feature of the plurality of presentation features, the associating comprising:

selecting a first device of the plurality of devices; and

selecting a presentation feature of the first device for presenting status information for a second device of the plurality of devices, the second device being different from the first device, wherein the selecting is performed in accordance with a user input to the processing system; and

saving information regarding the associating to a profile.

12. The device of claim 11 , wherein the profile is associated with a user, wherein the status information is related to a game program executing on a computing device, and wherein the status information is provided to a presentation feature of a user device other than the computing device.

13. The device of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving updated status information for the second device; and

responsive to the receiving, providing the updated status information to the presentation feature of the first device.

14. The device of claim 11 , wherein the presentation feature of the first device is a primary presentation feature for presenting the status information, and wherein the associating further comprises:

selecting a third device of the plurality of devices; and

selecting a presentation feature of the third device as an alternate presentation feature for presenting the status information.

15. The device of claim 14 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving updated status information for the second device;

determining whether the primary presentation feature is available; and

responsive to the primary presentation feature not being available, providing the updated status information to the alternate presentation feature.

16. A machine readable storage medium comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processing system including a processor, facilitate performance of operations comprising:

identifying a plurality of devices associated with the processing system, each of the plurality of devices having a status information indicator for providing status information indicative of a condition associated with that device;

identifying a plurality of presentation features for the plurality of devices;

associating, for each device of the plurality of devices, the status information indicator with a presentation feature of the plurality of presentation features, the associating comprising:

selecting a first device of the plurality of devices; and

selecting a presentation feature of the first device for presenting status information for a second device of the plurality of devices, the second device being different from the first device;

receiving updated status information for the second device; and

responsive to the receiving, providing the updated status information to the presentation feature of the first device.

17. The machine readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein the selecting is performed in accordance with a user input to the processing system, and wherein the operations further comprise:

saving information regarding the associating to a user profile.

18. The machine readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein the presentation feature of the first device is a primary presentation feature for presenting the status information, and wherein the associating further comprises:

selecting a third device of the plurality of devices; and

selecting a presentation feature of the third device as an alternate presentation feature for presenting the status information.

19. The machine readable storage medium of claim 18 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving updated status information for the second device;

determining whether the primary presentation feature is available; and

responsive to the primary presentation feature not being available, providing the updated status information to the alternate presentation feature.

20. The machine readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein the status information is related to a game program executing on a computing device, and wherein the status information is provided to a presentation feature of a user device other than the computing device.
