SHARING BEHAVIORAL PATTERNS BETWEEN DEVICES

摘要

A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a set-top box having a controller to present media content at a presentation device as directed by a user, monitor the media content consumed by the user, detect a first behavioral pattern based on the media content consumed by the user, transmit the detected first behavioral pattern to a communication device of the user, receive from the communication device a second behavioral pattern, and identify media content correlating to the second behavioral pattern. The communication device can be adapted to adjust communication operations according to the detected first behavioral pattern. Other embodiments are disclosed.

主权项

1. A computing device, comprising:
a memory that stores executable instructions; and a processor coupled to the memory, wherein, responsive to execution by the processor, the executable instructions facilitate performance of operations comprising:
determining a first behavioral pattern of a user based on monitoring of user interaction with first media content;transmitting the first behavioral pattern to a communication device associated with the user for adjusting communication operations according to the first behavioral pattern to generate adjusted communication operations at the communication device, wherein the adjusted communication operations include changing a graphical user interface presented by the communication device;receiving, from the communication device, a second behavioral pattern that is determined based on a monitored user input at the communication device;searching an electronic programming guide according to the second behavioral pattern;identifying second media content that is correlated to the second behavioral pattern based on the searching of the electronic programming guide; andproviding access to the second media content.
