1. A method comprising:
- under control of one or more processors configured with executable instructions;
in response to receiving a request to launch a browser application, launching an infotainment access tool instead of the browser application, the infotainment access tool being distinct from the browser application;
identifying available web content that includes a plurality of available web stories;
determining a context associated with a user, the context comprising a plurality of types of contextual information;
filtering the available web content based, at least in part, on the context to generate filtered web content;
determining relative relevance of individual web stories in the filtered web content;
determining presentation features based at least in part on the relative relevance;
enabling the user to change the relative relevance of the individual web stories by modifying one or more of the presentation features that are based on the relative relevance;
rendering, through a user interface, representations of the individual web stories included in the filtered web content; and

Context data may be based on a variety of data including, but not limited to, location information, recent communications, scheduled appointments, social network interactions, user-specified favorites, and so on.
