Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for managing timelines of network feeds. A system accesses network feeds associated with at least one social network. The system identifies a set of network feeds based on an associated name, keyword, calendar date, and/or geographic location. The system outputs, to a display device, a chronological representation of the set of network feeds based on calendar dates associated with the set of network feeds. The system can supplement the chronological representations of network feeds with additional network feeds associated with other network users.
Claims21
An apparatus for managing a timeline of network feeds, the apparatus comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- one or more stored sequences of instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to carry out the steps of:
- accessing network feeds associated with at least one social network;
- identifying a plurality of network feeds based on at least one of an associated name, an associated keyword, an associated calendar date, and an associated geographic location;
- assigning a priority to each of the plurality of network feeds based on a corresponding number of social network references;
- and
- outputting, to a display device, a chronological representation of the plurality of network feeds based on calendar dates associated with the plurality of network feeds, wherein the chronological representation of the plurality of network feeds based on calendar dates associated with the plurality of network feeds is displayed based on an associated priority for each of the plurality of network feeds.
A method for managing a timeline of network feeds, the method comprising:
- accessing network feeds associated with at least one social network;
- identifying a plurality of network feeds based on at least one of an associated name, an associated keyword, an associated calendar date, and an associated geographic location;
- assigning a priority to each of the plurality of network feeds based on a corresponding number of social network references;
- and
- outputting, to a display device, a chronological representation of the plurality of network feeds based on calendar dates associated with the plurality of network feeds, wherein the chronological representation of the plurality of network feeds based on calendar dates associated with the plurality of network feeds is displayed based on an associated priority for each of the plurality of network feeds.
The method of claim 9, wherein the chronological representation of the plurality of network feeds is displayed by the display device on a map based on associated geographical locations.
A computer program product comprising computer-readable program code to be executed by one or more processors when retrieved from a non-transitory computer-readable medium, the program code including instructions to:
- access network feeds associated with at least one social network;
- identify a plurality of network feeds based on at least one of an associated name, an associated keyword, an associated calendar date, and an associated geographic location;
- assign a priority to each of the plurality of network feeds based on a corresponding number of social network references;
- and
- output, to a display device, a chronological representation of the plurality of network feeds based on calendar dates associated with the plurality of network feeds, wherein the chronological representation of the plurality of network feeds based on calendar dates associated with the plurality of network feeds is displayed based on an associated priority for each of the plurality of network feeds.
A system comprising:
- a processor-based application, which when executed on a computer, will cause the processor to:
- access network feeds associated with at least one social network;
- identify a first plurality of network feeds based on at least one of an associated first name, an associated first keyword, an associated first calendar date, and an associated first geographic location;
- assign a priority to each of the first plurality of network feeds based on a corresponding number of social network references;
- identify a second plurality of network feeds based on at least one of an associated second name, an associated second keyword, an associated second calendar date, and an associated second geographic location;
- and
- output, to a display device, a first chronological representation of the first plurality of network feeds based on calendar dates associated with the first plurality of network feeds and a second chronological representation of the second plurality of network feeds based on calendar dates associated with the second plurality of network feeds, wherein the first chronological representation of the first plurality of network feeds based on calendar dates associated with the first plurality of network feeds is displayed based on an associated priority for each of the first plurality of network feeds.
