Abstract
A system and method are disclosed for automating the provision of social media product recommendations in an electronic commerce environment. A user selects one or more products from one or more Pick Lists, which are a pictorial grouping of products that the user has selected, assembled and named. The user then selects a Pick Collage template, which is then populated with the selected product(s). Once populated, the Pick Collage template is processed to generate a Pick Collage, which provides a more stylized presentation of the selected product(s). Once generated, the Pick Collage is provided to a website associated with a merchant that provides the selected product(s).

- providing the Pick Collage to the website for display on the web page.
A system comprising:
- a processor;
- a data bus coupled to the processor;
- and
- a non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium embodying computer program code, the non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium being coupled to the data bus, the computer program code interacting with a plurality of computer operations and comprising instructions executable by the processor and configured for:
- receiving product selection data from a user, the product selection data corresponding to a product provided by a merchant;
- receiving user input data from a user, the user input data comprising a request to generate a Pick Collage to be displayed on a web page of a website associated with the merchant;
