Abstract
Systems and methods for social media music streaming may include (1) creating a digital video room for a group of users that is configured to alternate between a lobby state and a live state and, in response to a triggering event, (2) toggling between (i) a lobby interface, corresponding to the lobby state, that enables asynchronous digital exchanges between the users of the group and (ii) a live interface, corresponding to the live state, that enables synchronous video conferencing between the users of the group. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- creating, for a group of users participating in a group chat via a group chat interface, a digital video room comprising (1) a lobby interface that enables asynchronous digital exchanges and (2) a live interface that enables synchronous video conferencing, wherein:
- the lobby interface comprises a set of lobby user tiles, consisting of only one lobby user tile for each user in the group of users, and the live interface comprises a set of live user tiles, consisting of only one live user tile for each user in the group of users;
- and
- each lobby user tile displays a thumbnail of a digital user artifact and each live user tile displays a live user media stream;
- and
- toggling between presenting the group chat interface, the lobby interface, and the live interface by horizontally sliding between the group chat interface, the lobby interface and the live interface in response to user swiping input.
A system comprising:
- at least one physical processor;
- physical memory comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the physical processor, cause the physical processor to:
- create, for a group of users participating in a group chat via a group chat interface, a digital video room comprising (1) a lobby interface that enables asynchronous digital exchanges and (2) a live interface that enables synchronous video conferencing, wherein:
- the lobby interface comprises a set of lobby user tiles, consisting of only one lobby user tile for each user in the group of users, and the live interface comprises a set of live user tiles, consisting of only one live user tile for each user in the group of users;
- and
- each lobby user tile displays a thumbnail of a digital user artifact and each live user tile displays a live user media stream;
- and
- toggle between presenting the group chat interface, the lobby interface, and the live interface by horizontally sliding between the group chat interface, the lobby interface and the live interface in response to user swiping input.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising one or more computer-readable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing device, cause the computing device to:
- create, for a group of users participating in a group chat via a group chat interface, a digital video room comprising (1) a lobby interface that enables asynchronous digital exchanges and (2) a live interface that enables synchronous video conferencing, wherein:
- the lobby interface comprises a set of lobby user tiles, consisting of only one lobby user tile for each user in the group of users, and the live interface comprises a set of live user tiles, consisting of only one live user tile for each user in the group of users;
- and
- each lobby user tile displays to a thumbnail of a digital user artifact and each live user tile displays a live user media stream;
- and
- toggle between presenting the group chat interface, the lobby interface, and the live interface by horizontally sliding between the group chat interface, the lobby interface and the live interface in response to user swiping input.
