Abstract

A system includes a computing device that includes a memory configured to store instructions. The system also includes a processor to execute the instructions to perform operations that include receiving one or more files representing a text message at a user device, wherein the received text message includes immutable style information of a brand and mutable content. Operations also include collecting data representing stylistic features associated with the immutable style information included in the received text message. Operations also include presenting at the user device the mutable content and the stylistic features embedded within the text message.

Claims

1. A computing device implemented method comprising:

receiving one or more files representing a text message at a user device, wherein the received text message includes immutable style information of a brand and mutable content;

collecting data representing stylistic features associated with the immutable style information included in the received text message; and

presenting at the user device the mutable content and the stylistic features embedded within the text message.

2. The computing device implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

storing the immutable style information at the user device through user interactions with the received text message.

3. The computing device implemented method of claim 2, further comprising:

using the stored immutable style information to create another text message for delivery to another computing device, wherein the created text message includes the immutable style information.

4. The computing device implemented method of claim 3, wherein using the stored immutable style information to create another text message includes the immutable style information being selected from a library stored at the user device.

5. The computing device implemented method of claim 3, wherein using the stored immutable style information is in response to the stored immutable style information being presented as a recommendation.

6. The computing device implemented method of claim 1, wherein collecting data representing the stylistic features includes receiving data from an information source at the user device.

7. The computing device implemented method of claim 6, wherein the information source is an application stored at the user device.

8. The computing device implemented method of claim 1, wherein collecting the data representing the stylistic features includes receiving data from an information source external to the user device.

9. The computing device implemented method of claim 8, wherein the information source is located at a publisher.

10. The computing device implemented method of claim 1, wherein collecting data representing stylistic features includes receiving one or more files that contain font information from a font service provider.

11. A system comprising:

a computing device comprising;

a memory configured to store instructions; and

a processor to execute the instructions to perform operations comprising;

receiving one or more files representing a text message at a user device, wherein the received text message includes immutable style information of a brand and mutable content;

collecting data representing stylistic features associated with the immutable style information included in the received text message; and

presenting at the user device the mutable content and the stylistic features embedded within the text message.

12. The system of claim 11, the operations further comprising:

storing the immutable style information at the user device through user interactions with the received text message.

13. The system of claim 12, the operations further comprising:

using the stored immutable style information to create another text message for delivery to another computing device, wherein the created text message includes the immutable style information.

14. The system of claim 13, wherein using the stored style information to create another text message includes the immutable style information being selected from a library stored at the user device.

15. The system of claim 13, wherein using the stored immutable style information is in response to the immutable stored style information being presented as a recommendation.

16. The system of claim 11, wherein collecting data representing the stylistic features includes receiving data from an information source at the user device.

17. The system of claim 16, wherein the information source is an application stored at the user device.

20. The system of claim 11, wherein collecting data representing stylistic features includes receiving one or more files that contain font information from a font service provider.

18. The system of claim 18, wherein collecting the data representing the stylistic features includes receiving data from an information source external to the user device.

19. The system of claim 18, wherein the information source is located at a publisher.

21. One or more computer readable media storing instructions that are executable by a processing device, and upon such execution cause the processing device to perform operations comprising:

receiving one or more files representing a text message at a user device, wherein the received text message includes immutable style information of a brand and mutable content;

collecting data representing stylistic features associated with the immutable style information included in the received text message; and

presenting at the user device the mutable content and the stylistic features embedded within the text message.

22. The computer readable media of claim 21, further storing executable instructions to cause the processing device to perform operations comprising:

storing the immutable style information at the user device through user interactions with the received text message.

23. The computer readable media of claim 22, further storing executable instructions to cause the processing device to perform operations comprising:

using the stored immutable style information to create another text message for delivery to another computing device, wherein the created text message includes the immutable style information.

24. The computer readable media of claim 23, wherein using the stored immutable style information to create another text message includes the immutable style information being selected from a library stored at the user device.

25. The computer readable media of claim 23, wherein using the stored immutable style information is in response to the stored immutable style information being presented as a recommendation.

26. The computer readable media of claim 21, wherein collecting data representing the stylistic features includes receiving data from an information source at the user device.

27. The computer readable media of claim 26, wherein the information source is an application stored at the user device.

28. The computer readable media of claim 21, wherein collecting the data representing the stylistic features includes receiving data from an information source external to the user device.

29. The computer readable media of claim 28, wherein the information source is located at a publisher.

30. The computer readable media of claim 21, wherein collecting data representing stylistic features includes receiving one or more files that contain font information from a font service provider.
