    Abstract: A social networking system provides relevant content objects at the request of social networking system users. Relevance scores are determined for content objects by matching user location, user interests, and other social information to the content, location, and timing associated with content objects. A ranked list of content objects can be provided to the user, where the content objects are relevant to them based on their interests, location, and other social information. The system provides a user interface that displays a map containing pins, where each pin represents a content object in actionable proximity to a user. The content objects selected to be presented as pins to the user are those content objects with sufficiently high relevance scores. Multiple pins for a nearby area can be clustered. The user can switch between zoom levels for the map, thereby showing pins at varying distances from the user's current location.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, an uploaded multimedia object comprising a photo image or video is subjected to computer vision algorithms to detect and isolate objects within the multimedia object, and the isolated object is searched against a photographic location database containing images of a plurality of locations. Upon detecting a matching object, the location information associated with the photograph in the database containing the matching object may be leveraged to automatically check the user in to the associated location.

    Abstract: In particular embodiments, a temporary user is able to use another's personal computing device in shared mode for a short period of time while experiencing a personalized user interface. An indication is detected that a personal computing device associated with a primary user is to be shared with a temporary user. Access to local personal information associated with the primary user is disabled if it is stored on the personal computing device. Access to remote personal information of the primary user that is accessible from the personal computing device is disabled. A personalized user interface incorporating personal information associated with the temporary user is presented on the personal computing device for the temporary user. Personal information of the primary user is not accessible by the temporary user, and vice versa. When shared mode is to be terminated, all personal information of the temporary user is deleted.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes accessing geolocation data indicating a first geolocation of a mobile computing device of a user of a social-networking system. The social-networking system including a graph that includes a number of nodes and edges connecting the nodes. A first node in the graph corresponds to the user. The method also includes identifying one or more second nodes in the graph connected to the first node. Each of the second nodes being associated with a second geolocation. Each of the second nodes being connected to the first node within a pre-determined threshold number of degrees of separation with at least one edge corresponding to the activity socially relevant to the user. Each edge in the graph represents a single degree of separation within the graph. The identifying being based on a determination that the second geolocation is within a pre-determined threshold distance of the first geolocation.

    Abstract translation: 在一个实施例中,一种方法包括访问指示社交网络系统的用户的移动计算设备的第一地理定位的地理定位数据。 该社交网络系统包括包括连接节点的多个节点和边缘的图形。 图中的第一个节点对应于用户。 该方法还包括识别连接到第一节点的图中的一个或多个第二节点。 每个第二节点与第二地理位置相关联。 每个第二节点在预定的阈值数目的分离度之内连接到第一节点,其中至少一个边缘对应于与用户社交相关的活动。 图中的每个边都表示图中的单一分离度。 所述识别基于所述第二地理位置在所述第一地理位置的预定阈值距离内的确定。
