Abstract
We have recognized a limitation that may arise when seeking to deliver both navigational and non-navigational content to a mobile user. The limitation is that the presentation of at least certain non-navigational content may interfere with presentation of the navigational content and vice versa. In accordance with an aspect of this invention, the above mentioned limitation is avoided by the following two steps. The first step is ascertaining an available window of time before a piece of navigational content needs to be presented to the mobile user. The second step is identifying a piece of non-navigational content which can be presented in its totality within the available window of time. Choosing non-navigational content which may be completely presented during an available window of time avoids the limitation noted above.
