Systems and methods for media streaming and presentation in an application environment

1. A method for displaying data, the method comprising:

displaying an application on a mobile electronic communication device;

contacting at least one media server configured to store media data;

receiving, at the mobile electronic communication device, first available media data from the at least one media server;

displaying the received first available media data in a media stream within the application;

contacting, after a predetermined amount of time, the at least one media server;

receiving, at the mobile electronic communication device, second available media data from the at least one media server in response to the contacting after the predetermined amount of time;

receiving the second available media data from a plurality of media servers at a particular rate;

detecting a stream velocity of the second available media data received from each server in the plurality of servers;

adjusting the rate at which the second available media data is received from each server in the plurality of servers based on differences between the stream velocities of each server in the plurality of servers and

displaying the second available media data in the media stream.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

sorting the received second available media data based on at least one of chronology, popularity, relevance, or financial value; and

buffering the sorting of the received second available media data based on the slowest stream velocity.

3. A method for displaying data, the method comprising:

displaying a device environment on a mobile electronic communication device;

contacting at least one media server configured to store media data;

receiving, at the mobile electronic communication device, first available media data from the at least one media server;

displaying the received first available media data in a media stream within the device environment;

contacting, after a predetermined amount of time, the at least one media server;

receiving, at the mobile electronic communication device, second available media data from the at least one media server in response to the contacting after the predetermined amount of time;

receiving the second available media data from a plurality of media servers at a particular rate;

detecting a stream velocity of the second available media data received from each server in the plurality of servers;

adjusting the rate at which the second available media data is received from each server in the plurality of servers based on differences between the stream velocities of each server in the plurality of servers; and

displaying the second available media data in the media stream.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:

sorting the received second available media data based on at least one of chronology, popularity, relevance, or financial value; and

buffering the sorting of the second available media data to account for differences in stream velocity amongst the plurality of media servers.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the media stream is positioned at a side of the application data within the application while allowing simultaneous access to the application data.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

storing user data in a user profile;

analyzing at least one of the first available media data and the second available media data in relation to the stored user data; and

selecting particular media data to display based on the user data.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the user data comprises at least one of geographic location, age, gender, type of games played, type of mobile electronic communication device, length of application use, in-app purchasing habits, win-loss ratio, time of day, day of the week, local weather, application personalization choices, and posts that have been expanded from the media stream.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

storing user selections related to at least one social media network to display in the media stream; and

modifying the displayed media stream in accordance with the user selections.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

displaying at least one interactive message associated with an application status;

prompting a user to post the application status to at least one social media network;

receiving an indication to post the application status to the at least one social media network; and

posting the application status to the at least one social media network.

10. The method of claim 3 , wherein the media stream is positioned at a side of the device environment data within the device environment while allowing simultaneous access to the device environment data.

11. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:

storing user data in a user profile;

analyzing at least one of the first available media data and the second available media data in relation to the stored user data; and

selecting particular media data to display based on the user data.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the user data comprises at least one of geographic location, age, gender, type of games played, type of mobile electronic communication device, length of application use, in-app purchasing habits, win-loss ratio, time of day, day of the week, local weather, application personalization choices, and posts that have been expanded from the media stream.

13. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:

storing user selections related to at least one social media network to display in the media stream; and

modifying the displayed media stream in accordance with the user selections.

14. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:

displaying at least one interactive message associated with an application status;

prompting a user to post the application status to at least one social media network;

receiving an indication to post the application status to the at least one social media network; and

posting the application status to the at least one social media network.
