Abstract
Techniques for configuring and operating a fantasy sports interleaver service are described herein. In some examples, a content feed is associated with each of a plurality of games (e.g., a plurality of football games). A plurality of clips may be created from each content feed. Fantasy point information may be associated with at least some of the clips. For example, if a football quarterback throws a touchdown pass within a clip, fantasy points may be awarded to the quarterback and/or assigned to the clip. The clip may be transmitted to a client device of a user of the fantasy sports interleaver service based at least in part upon a fantasy sports account of the user (e.g., based upon an athlete on the user's fantasy roster that is depicted in the clip).
Claims22
A method comprising:
- under control of one or more processors configured with executable instructions:
- determining one or more topics of interest to a user based at least in part on a fantasy sports account of the user;
- identifying multiple content segments that are relevant to the one or more topics of interest to the user;
- and
- causing the multiple content segments to be served to a client device of the user.
A method comprising:
- under control of one or more processors configured with executable instructions:
- receiving content from multiple sources;
- segmenting the content into content segments, each content segment depicting a portion of a sporting event;
- tagging each content segment with one or more tags;
- matching one or more of the content segments with a subscriber profile based at least in part on:
- the one or more tags of each content segment;
- and
- one or more topics to which to the subscriber profile includes a subscription;
- and
- causing the one or more content segments to be served to a client device of the user.
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory communicatively coupled to the one or more processors, the memory storing:
- a content store including multiple content segments, each content segment being tagged with one or more tags;
- a subscription store including multiple subscriber profiles, each subscriber profile including subscriptions to one or more topics, the subscriptions of each subscriber profile being based at least in part on a fantasy sports account;
- and
- executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- identifying, based at least in part on the tags, content segments from among the multiple content segments that are applicable to one or more of the subscriber profiles;
- and
- causing the identified content segments to be served to client devices of the respective subscriber profiles to which the content segments are applicable.
A method comprising:
- under control of one or more processors configured with executable instructions:
- identifying multiple content segments that are relevant to the one or more topics of interest to a user from a pool of available content segments;
- and
- adding the one or more content segments to a segment buffer of content segments to be served to the client device, the content segments in the segment buffer being in a priority order based at least in part on a fantasy sports account of the user;
- and
- causing the multiple content segments to be served to a client device of the user in the priority order.
