Abstract:
A method for deriving social annotations from a client contact list is disclosed. The method includes transmitting, by a client device, a request for a media item. The method further includes receiving, by the client device, the requested media item and social annotation data related to the requested media item. The received social annotation data is at least partially derived from a plurality of contact identifiers obtained from a contact list associated with the client device. The requested media item and at least one social annotation based on the social annotation data are presented by the client device.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for providing members of a user group with access to restricted media content items. In one implementation, a processing device receives selections of one or more substantially unrestricted media content items, the one or more substantially unrestricted media content items being associated with a media content provider and being accessible to one or more users of a media sharing service. The processing device processes the selections to identify one or more users with respect to which at least one of the one or more selections originated, generates one or more groups, each of the groups including at least one of the users, and provides, to at least one of the one or more groups, access to one or more restricted media content items, the one or more restricted media content items being inaccessible to one or more users of the media sharing service.
Abstract:
A dynamic selection of content from social shares to display in a user interface is performed. A request for a user interface (UI) document is received. A set of identifiers is associated with the UI document. The set of identifiers includes a page identifier for the UI document. An identifier list for a social share associated with the UI document is obtained in view of the page identifier. The identifier list associated with the social share is updated in view of the set of identifiers associated with the UI document. The UI document is modified to provide a representation associated with an identifier selected from the updated identifier list for the social share.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for triggering user notifications of media content items. An example method may comprise: identifying a user of a content sharing platform; determining that a plurality of media content items has a value of a user interest metric exceeding a defined threshold value, wherein the plurality of media content items is represented by a list of media content items compiled based on a pre-defined criterion, and wherein the user interest metric reflects interest of the user to the plurality of media content items; selecting, among the plurality of media content items, a media content item that has not been accessed by the user; and notifying the user of the media content item.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus include computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium for crediting an entity for a conversion. A method includes: providing an interface to an entity; receiving transaction information from the entity through the interface; creating a token; providing the token to the entity; storing the transaction information in association with the token in a first log; receiving from the entity a user identifier associated with the transaction along with the token; associating the user identifier with the token in a second log; determining a linking between impressions and conversions including using the token to determine a relevant user identifier and transaction details, and using the determined relevant user identifier to locate prior impressions made to the user; and debiting a content sponsor associated with the prior impression, and crediting a publisher that published the impression and the entity, when a linking impression and conversion is located.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for permitting selection and modification of a set of video segments on a mobile device is described. A user interface is provided on a screen of the mobile device to allow a user to select any of a plurality of original video segments of an original video. A selection of at least one of the original video segments is received via the user interface. A request for a modification to the selected at least one original video segment can also be received via the user interface. The systems and methods can cause a modification of the selected at least one original video segment to be performed to provide at least one modified video segment. The at least one modified video segment can be presented via the user interface.

Abstract:
A processing device identifies a set of content items to be included in a feed displayed to a user of a social network platform in a user interface of the social network platform, wherein the set of content items are hosted by a content sharing platform. For each content item from the set of content items, the processing device identifies one or more bucketing tokens provided by the content sharing platform, wherein each bucketing token comprises a unique identifier that identifies a plurality of content items as being associated with a group of users of the content sharing platform that have similar interests. Further, the processing device improves a ranking score of each content item from the set of content items that has at least one bucketing token matching a bucketing token associated with the user of the social network platform, wherein the set of content items to be included in the feed displayed to the user in the user interface of the social network platform is to be modified based on improved ranking scores of respective content items from the set of content items.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for providing selectable content creator controls in conjunction with sponsored media content items. A method includes receiving a media content item of a first user of a content sharing platform, wherein the media content item reflects a positive review of a product of a second user of the content sharing platform, and providing the media content item of the first user for presentation to the second user. The method further includes receiving a selection of the media content item by the second user, the selection of the media content item indicating a request of the second user to sponsor a presentation of the media items to users of the content sharing platform to promote the product of the second user, creating a media player interface comprising the media content item and a control selectable to view information promoting additional media content items of the first user, and providing the media player interface for presentation to a third user of the content sharing platform.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and media for presenting an advertisement are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: receiving one or more advertising parameters associated with an application; determining, using a hardware processor, that an advertisement related to the application is to be presented based at least in part on whether the application has been installed on a device associated with a user; and causing the advertisement to be presented in connection with presentation of a video having content associated with the application in response to determining that the advertisement related to the application is to be presented, wherein the advertisement includes information indicating one or more virtual items associated with the application available for purchase.
