The method of claim 1, wherein detecting the non-user interactive state includes detecting a charging state of the device;wherein detecting the change from the non-user interactive state to the user interactive state includes detecting a change of the device from the charging state to a non-charging state. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein detecting the change from the non-user interactive state to the user interactive state includes detecting one or more of a button press or a touchscreen input. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the device is configured to detect one or more of the following activities by a user: steps taken, energy consumed, elevation gained, active minutes. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein at least one of the plurality of messages is defined by input received from a secondary user, the secondary user being a member of a social graph of a primary user associated with the device. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the operations of selecting and displaying are not performed during a time period for which an event is scheduled in a calendar of a user of the device. 9. A method for presenting a message on an activity monitoring device, comprising: storing a plurality of messages to the device;detecting a stationary state of the device;detecting a movement of the device from the stationary state;in response to detecting the movement from the stationary state, selecting one of a plurality of messages, and displaying the selected message on the device;wherein at least one of the plurality of messages is defined based on one or more of a current date, a location of the device, a current season, or a current weather;wherein at least one of the plurality of messages is defined by input received from a secondary user, the secondary user being a member of a social graph of a primary user associated with the device;wherein the method is executed by at least one processor. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein detecting the stationary state includes detecting non-movement of the device for a predefined time period. 11. The method of claim 9, wherein storing the plurality of messages includes identifying the device to a server and downloading the plurality of messages from the server, the server being configured to access a user account associated with the device, the plurality of messages being selected by the server based on the user account. 12. The method of claim 9, wherein at least one of the plurality of messages is defined based on an activity history of a user associated with the device. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the activity history is defined by levels of activity associated to specific time periods. 14. The method of claim 9, wherein the operations of selecting and displaying are not performed during a time period for which an event is scheduled in a calendar of a user of the device. 15. An activity monitoring device, comprising: a message storage device configured to store a plurality of messages;a motion sensor;a display;logic configured to detect, based on output of the motion sensor, a stationary state of the device and a subsequent movement of the device from the stationary state, and, in response to detecting the movement from the stationary state, select one of the plurality of messages, and display the selected message on the device;wherein at least one of the plurality of messages is defined based on an activity history of a user associated with the device;wherein at least one of the plurality of messages is defined by input received from a secondary user, the secondary user being a member of a social graph of a primary user associated with the device;wherein the method is executed by at least one processor. 16. The activity monitoring device of claim 15, wherein detecting the stationary state includes detecting non-movement of the device for a predefined time period. 17. The activity monitoring device of claim 15, wherein selecting one of the plurality of messages is based on one or more of a length of time of the stationary state, a current time of day, a current location of the device, or an activity history associated with a user of the device. 18.
