1. A method comprising:
- determining, by a computer system, that a user is interested in receiving reminders about particular content;
determining, by the computer system, that a particular entity included in a plurality of entities is associated with the particular content, the particular entity including criteria for use in creating a reminder to the user about availability of the particular content;
based on determining that the particular entity is associated with the particular content, automatically creating the reminder for the user based on the criteria; and
scheduling the reminder for activation on a computing device when the computing device is determined to be in proximity to a physical location that includes a device that provides the particular content to the user.

1. A method comprising:
-
determining, by a computer system, that a user is interested in receiving reminders about particular content; determining, by the computer system, that a particular entity included in a plurality of entities is associated with the particular content, the particular entity including criteria for use in creating a reminder to the user about availability of the particular content; based on determining that the particular entity is associated with the particular content, automatically creating the reminder for the user based on the criteria; and scheduling the reminder for activation on a computing device when the computing device is determined to be in proximity to a physical location that includes a device that provides the particular content to the user. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6)

7. A computing system comprising:
-
one or more processors configured to execute a content manager including a data model and a content reminder module, the data model including a plurality of entities, each entity included in the plurality of entities including criteria for use in creating reminders associated with content; and a repository including the content, the content manager being configured to; determine that a particular content included in the content is associated with at least one particular entity included in the plurality of entities; and determine that a user is interested in receiving at least one reminder about availability of the particular content, and the content reminder module being configured to, based on determining, by the content manager, that the particular content is associated with the at least one particular entity; automatically create a reminder for the user based on the criteria; and automatically schedule the reminder for activation on a computing device when the computing device is determined to be in proximity to a physical location that includes a device that provides the particular content to the user. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A method for managing content, the method comprising:
-
receiving, at a first time and by a computing device executing a search engine application, one or more search terms indicative of particular content of interest to a user; identifying additional content related to the particular content based on the one or more search terms; determining that the additional content is available for access by the user at a second time later than the first time; providing, to a computer system, information indicative of an interest of the user to receive reminders about the particular content, the computer system creating a reminder for the user based on the one or more search terms being indicative of the particular content of interest to the user and based on the user not accessing the additional content at the first time, the reminder being scheduled to trigger at the second time; receiving, by the computer device, the reminder indicating that the additional content related to the particular content is available for access by the user at the second time; and providing, by the computing device, a user experience for engaging with the reminder when the reminder triggers at the second time. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)

18. A non-transitory, machine-readable medium having instructions stored thereon, the instructions, when executed by a processor, cause a computing device to:
-
execute a search engine application; receive, at a first time and in a graphical user interface of the search engine application, one or more search terms indicative of particular content of interest to a user; identify additional content related to the particular content based on the one or more search terms; determine that the additional content is available for access by the user at a second time later than the first time; provide, to a computer system, information indicative of an interest of the user to receive reminders about the particular content, the computer system creating a reminder for the user based on the one or more search terms indicative of the particular content of interest to the user and based on the user not accessing the additional content at the first time, the reminder being scheduled for the second time; receive, at the second time, the reminder indicating that the additional content related to the particular content is available for access by the user; and provide, by the computing device, a user experience for engaging with the content reminder. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
