Abstract
A method and system for collaborative content filtering on a communications network includes monitoring social networking communications of a plurality of users on a communications network using a program. The method and system further include selecting a filter parameter by a user.

The filtered content is identified to at least one user.
Claims20
A method for collaborative content filtering on a communications network, comprising the steps of:
- monitoring social networking communications of a plurality of users on a communications network using a program, the program being executable by a processor of a computer;
- selecting a filter parameter;
- filtering content in the social networking communications based on the filter parameter, the filtering including parsing input from the users, using the program;
- and
- identifying the filtered content to at least one user.
A system for collaborative content filtering on a communications network, which comprises:
- a communications network having social networking communications for a plurality of users, the social networking communications being monitorable using a program being executable by a processor of a computer;
- a filter parameter being selectable by a user of the plurality of users;
- filtered content from the social networking communications based on the filter parameter, the filtered content at least in part based on parsed input from the users, using the program;
- and
- an identification of the filtered content to at least one user.
A computer program product for collaborative content filtering on a communications network, the computer program product including a program embodied in a computer readable storage medium, the program having code being executable by a processor to perform a method, comprising:
- monitoring social networking communications of a plurality of users on a communications network using a program, the program being executable by a processor of a computer;
- selecting a filter parameter;
- filtering content in the social networking communications based on the filter parameter, the filtering including parsing input from the users, using the program;
- and
- identifying the filtered content to at least one user.
