System and method for determining an interest in promotional content displayed at a mobile communication device
Determining interest in promotional content to be displayed at a mobile communication device is described. The promotional content, including a first portion that is visible and a second portion that is hidden in a first state, may be received. The first and second portions are each selectable only when visible. A promotional display that includes the promotional content in the first state is generated. Upon receipt of a first input from the user in relation to the first portion, the promotional content may be transitioned from the first state to a second state such the first portion becomes hidden and the second portion becomes visible. Upon failing to receive a second input from the user in relation to the second portion, the promotional content may be transitioned from the second state to the first state. Upon receipt of the second input, an interest in the promotional content may be indicated.
1. A method, comprising:
receiving, by a device comprising one or more processors, an item of content for display in a media document with other content, the item of content having at least three states, an image, a video, and an input object;
displaying, by the device, in a first region of the media document, the item of content in a first state, wherein the display of the item of content in the first state includes the image;
detecting, by the device, responsive to displaying the item of content in the first state, a first interaction with a second region of the media document, the second region different from the first region;
displaying, by the device, the item of content in a second state in response to detecting the first interaction, wherein the display of the item of content in the second state includes the input object, the image, and the video;
detecting, by the device, a second interaction with the input object of the item of content in the second state, wherein the device is configured to cease the display of the item of content in the second state in response to the second interaction with the input object; and
ceasing, by the device, responsive to detecting the second interaction with the input object, the display of the item of content in the second state, and transitioning the display of the item of content to a third state displaying the video without displaying the image.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the item of content in the second state in response to detecting the first interaction further comprises preventing visibility of the display of the item of content in the first state.
3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising subsequently displaying a website associated with the item of content in response to detecting an interaction with the image of the item of content.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the display of the item of content in the third state is larger in size than the display of the item of content in the first state.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the display of the item of content in the second state occupies the first region of the media document.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the item of content in the first state is not selectable during the display of the item of content in the second state.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting the first interaction or the second interaction further comprises detecting a tap interaction on an input device of the device.
8. A system for managing presentation of content, comprising: a display, a network interface, an input device, and one or more processors;
wherein the network interface is configured to receive an item of content for display in a media document with other content, the item of content having at least three states, an image, a video, and an input object;
wherein the display is configured to display, in a first region of the media document, the item of content in a first state, wherein the display of the item of content in the first state includes the image;
wherein the one or more processors are further configured to detect, responsive to displaying the item of content in the first state, a first interaction with a second region of the media document, the second region different from the first region;
wherein the display is further configured to display the item of content in a second state in response to detecting the first interaction, wherein the display of the item of content in the second state includes the input object, the image, and the video;
wherein the input device is further configured to detect a second interaction with the input object of the display of the item of content in the second state; and
wherein the one or more processors are configured to cease, responsive to detecting the second interaction with the input object, the display of the item of content in the second state, and transition the display of the item of content to a third state displaying the video without displaying the image.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to prevent visibility of the display of the item of content in the first state in response to detecting the first interaction.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to display a website associated with the item of content in response to detecting an interaction with the image of the item of content.
11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the display the item of content in the third state is larger in size than the display of the item of content in the first state.
12. The system of claim 8 , wherein the display of the item of content in the second state occupies the first region of the media document.
13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the item of content in the first state is not selectable during the display of the item of content in the second state.
14. The system of claim 8 , wherein the input device is configured to detect the first interaction or the second interaction by detecting a tap interaction on the input device.
15. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions executable on a processing device that upon such execution causes the processing device to perform operations comprising:
receiving, by the processing device, an item of content for display in a media document with other content, the item of content having at least three states, an image, a video, and an input object;
displaying, by the processing device, in a first region of the media document, the item of content in a first state, wherein the display of the item of content in the first state includes the image;
detecting, by the processing device, responsive to displaying the item of content in the first state, a first interaction with a second region of the media document, the second region different from the first region;
displaying, by the processing device, the item of content in a second state in response to detecting the first interaction, wherein the display of the item of content in the second state includes the input object, the image, and the video;
detecting, by the processing device, a second interaction with the input object of the display of the item of content in the second state, wherein the instructions are configured to cause the processing device to cease the display of the item of content in the second state in response to the second interaction with the input object; and
ceasing, by the processing device, responsive to detecting the second interaction with the input object, the display of the item of content in the second state, and transitioning the display of the item of content to a third state displaying the video without displaying the image.
16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising instructions that cause the processing device to prevent visibility of the display of the item of content in the first state in response to detecting the first interaction.
17. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising instructions that cause the processing device to display a website associated with the item of content in response to detecting an interaction with the image of the item of content.
18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the display the item of content in the third state is larger in size than the display of the item of content in the first state.
19. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the display of the item of content in the second state occupies the first region of the media document.
20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the item of content in the first state is not selectable during the display of the item of content in the second state.
