A system having at least one processor, a storage, and a communication platform for updating content, the system comprising:
- a content update determiner implemented on the at least one processor and configured to
- determine at least one indicator with respect to a content pool based on events associated with users, wherein the at least one indicator is indicative of users' content preference and is dynamically updated based on events associated with users, and
- update the content pool based on the at least one indicator.
A non-transitory machine-readable medium having information recorded thereon for updating content, wherein the information, when read by the machine, causes the machine to perform the following:
- determining at least one indicator with respect to a content pool based on events associated with users, wherein the at least one indicator is indicative of users' content preference and is dynamically updated based on events associated with users;
- and
- updating the content pool based on the at least one indicator.
