Presented are a method, a system, and a computer program product for a unified graphical user interface for computing devices, enabling assembly of digital content for transmission to a plurality of network-based target destinations. The process may be initiated using content newly created or stored on the device, or using content accessible to the device by network connection. Destinations may be any communications services or upload destinations to which the device has access, and for some types of communication may be customized for singular recipients or groups of recipients. Icons representing content and one or more destinations are associated by user actions in the interface to establish the transmission to be executed. The interface also enables launching of applications installed on the device that are represented by the target destination icons. Embodiments described include those suited to both cursor-controlled devices and touchscreen-controlled devices.
A method for using a graphical user interface in a computing device to select at least one of a plurality of digitally-controllable source content, to associate the at least one source content with at least one of a plurality of selected target destinations, the method comprising:
A system for using a graphical user interface in a computing device to select at least one of a plurality of digitally-controllable source content, to associate the at least one source content with at least one of a plurality of selected target destinations, the system comprising a processor interconnected with a nonvolatile memory component, a form of data storage, a display, an input device or input component, and a communication subsystem configured to control the system to:
A computer program product, comprising a non-transitory computer usable medium having a computer readable program code, which when executed will implement a method for using a graphical user interface in a computing device to select at least one of a plurality of digitally-controllable source content, to associate the at least one source content with at least one of a plurality of selected target destinations, the method comprising:
