Return Visit-Aware: The Future Of Content Streams That Know What Youve Consumed

Return Vist Aware Content StreamsWhen someone you haven't seen in a while asks you "What's up?" or "How are you?", you probably give them a high-level summary of the major life events from the months since you last spoke. When you speak to someone you see frequently, you probably respond to the same questions with close-up,specific descriptions of your activities over past few days. Humans are aware of when and what we last communicated with someone, and we dynamically alter what information we provide to avoid repetition.While most of the discussion about Facebook's latest changes has centered around the real-time Ticker, the switch to a news feed that displays different content depending on when you last visited will also profoundly change how we use the social network. Eventually, I think the "return visit-aware" concept will also change how we consume content across the web.
