Abstract:
Client-side and server-side methods for displaying event data within a map that is displayed on a computing device are presented. In an example, the method includes receiving a request for mapping data including a request location defining a current geographic location of the client computing device, determining a request time corresponding to the request, the request time based on a time the mapping data request was sent by the client computing device. The method also includes retrieving mapping data corresponding to the request location and determining that an event in an event database includes an event time that occurs within a threshold time of the request time. The method further includes retrieving event data corresponding to the event that occurs within the threshold time of the request time and sending the retrieved mapping data and the retrieved event data to the client computing device in response to the request.
Abstract:
A method for providing personalized content suggestions for subscribers of a channel of a content sharing platform is disclosed. The method includes determining that a user accessing a page of a channel of a content sharing platform is a subscriber of the channel. The method also includes accessing a viewing history of the user, the viewing history identifying content items of the content sharing platform that have been accessed by the user. The method further includes providing a user interface on the page of the channel, the user interface tailored to the user and the channel based on the user being a subscriber of the channel and the accessed viewing history of the user.
Abstract:
A method for soliciting and creating collaborative content items is disclosed. The method includes identifying contacts of a target user, the contacts each having an affinity score with the target user that exceeds an affinity score threshold value, soliciting, from each of the identified contacts, a content item curated by the identified contact to convey a personalized message to the target user corresponding to an event unique to the target user, receiving the content items from at least a subset of the identified contacts, and providing a collaborative content product comprising the received content items to the target user.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and media for presenting messages are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: determining that a user interface is to be presented; determining at least one category of messages; determining, using a hardware processor, a plurality of individual messages within each of the at least one category of messages based at least in part on a user's expertise level; and causing the at least one category of messages and the plurality of individual messages within each of the at least one category of messages to be presented in response to the determination that the user interface is to be presented.

Abstract:
A system and method are disclosed for detecting when an image provided by a user for inclusion in a web page may be distracting to viewers of the web page. In one implementation, a computer system determines a measure of visual complexity of an image (e.g., a measure based on how often neighboring pixels in the image differ in intensity by at least a given percentage, etc.). The image is then included in a web page only when the determined measure of visual complexity is below a threshold.
Abstract:
A method for providing a user interface tailored by subscription state for a channel of a content sharing platform is disclosed. The method includes determining a subscription state of a user that is accessing a page of a channel of a content sharing platform. The method further include when the subscription state of the user is a non-subscriber of the channel, providing a non-subscriber user interface on the page of the channel, the non-subscriber user interface comprising a non-subscriber content item. The method also includes when the subscription state of the user is a subscriber of the channel, providing a subscriber user interface on the page of the channel, the subscriber user interface comprising one or more content items from the channel that are tailored to the user and to the channel.
