causing, via the one or more processors, presentation of the second subset of the second set of data on the user device such that it is positioned above the first subset of the second set of data on the user device; and

automatically scrolling through the second subset of the second set of data to the first subset of the second set of data.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting user input indicative of the scroll pattern comprises:

detecting a speed of the scroll pattern;

determining whether the speed is below a speed threshold for a predetermined period of time; and

in response to a determination that the speed is below the speed threshold for the predetermined period of time, identifying a segment displayed to the user when the speed is below the speed threshold for the predetermined period of time.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the identified segment is associated with the first category;

wherein determining the preferred category comprises determining that the identified segment is associated with the first category.

in response to receiving the first set of data, determining a previously preferred category;

wherein the first set of data is arranged based on the previously preferred category.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

rearranging the first set of data based on the preferred category.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the first category is the preferred category and rearranging the first set of data comprises:

positioning the first segment above the second segment.

11. A device for displaying content, comprising:

a memory;

a display; and

one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to:

receive a first set of data including a first subset of the first set of data under a first category and a second subset of the first set of data under a second category;

arrange the first set of data into a first sequence of consecutive segments, wherein the first sequence of consecutive segments comprises a first segment including the first subset of the first set of data and a second segment including the second subset of the first set of data;

display the first set of data in the arranged first sequence of consecutive segments on the display of the device, wherein the device is associated with a user;

detect user input indicative of a scroll pattern of the user through the first sequence of consecutive segments;

determine a first predicted pause duration for the first segment and a second predicted pause duration for the second segment;

compare the detected user input to the first predicted pause duration for the first segment and the second predicted pause duration for the second segment to determine a preferred category, wherein the preferred category is the first or the second category; and

receive and arrange a second set of data based on the preferred category.

12. The device of claim 11 , wherein the second set of data includes a first subset of the second set of data and a second subset of the second set of data, and wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

associate the first subset of the second set of data with the preferred category.

13. The device of claim 12 , wherein the second set of data is arranged such that the first subset of the second set of data is followed by the second subset of the second set of data.

14. The device of claim 12 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

cause presentation of the first subset of the second set of data on the user device such that it is positioned above the second subset of the second set of data on the user device.

15. The device of claim 12 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

cause presentation of the second subset of the second set of data on the user device such that it is positioned above the first subset of the second set of data on the user device; and

automatically scroll through the second subset of the second set of data to the first subset of the second set of data.

16. The device of claim 11 , wherein detecting user input indicative of the scroll pattern of the user through the first sequence of consecutive segments comprises:

detecting a speed of the scroll pattern;

determining whether the speed is below a speed threshold for a predetermined period of time; and

in response to a determination that the speed is below the speed threshold for the predetermined period of time, identifying a segment displayed to the user when the speed is below the speed threshold for the predetermined period of time.

17. The device of claim 16 , wherein the identified segment is associated with the first category;

wherein determining the preferred category comprises determining that the identified segment is associated with the first category.

18. A method for displaying content on a user device including a display, comprising:

receiving, via one or more processors, a first set of data including a first subset of the first set of data under a first category and a second subset of the first set of data under a second category;

arranging, via the one or more processors, the first set of data into a first sequence of segments, wherein the first sequence of segments comprises a first segment including the first subset of the first set of data and a second segment including the second subset of the first set of data;

causing, via the one or more processors, presentation of the first set of data in the arranged first sequence of segments on the display of the user device;
