PROVIDING RELEVANT CONTENT TO A USER DURING A USER'S FREE TIME

摘要

A method, system and computer program product for utilizing a user's free time. A period of free time for the user is identified. A user's request to access an application (e.g., social media application), a view and/or a folder is monitored during the user's period of free time. In response to detecting no content updates when the user accesses the application, view and/or folder during the user's free time, content is selected to be displayed to the user during the user's free time. For example, opportunistic content, such a password change notification, may be displayed to the user five days prior to the normal time of notification. In this manner, the user will be able to address such content during a time the user has free as opposed to being required to address such content when the user has less free time thereby more efficiently utilizing the user's free time.
