US 2018/0121510 A1 · SUGGESTING OBJECT IDENTIFIERS AND RECIPIENTS FOR COMMUNICATION

Abstract

Described are systems and methods that suggest candidate recipients to receive an object identifier from a first user. For example, a first user, independent of a conversation with a second user, may select, close-up, or otherwise view an object identifier. The system, upon detecting the interaction with the object identifier by the first user, may determine one or more second users to suggest to the first user as candidate recipients with which the first user can share the viewed object identifier. The systems and methods may also suggest object identifiers to share with a selected recipient and/or determine two or more users that have a common connection and share an object identifier related to the connection with each of those users.

Dependent claims

A computer-implemented method, comprising:

under control of one or more computing systems configured with executable instructions,
receiving from a first user a selection of an object identifier from a plurality of object identifiers;
determining a plurality of potential recipients with which the object identifier may be shared by the first user, wherein each of the plurality of potential recipients are associated with the first user;
determining, for each of the plurality of potential recipients, a respective engagement probability indicating a probability that the potential recipient will engage with the object identifier;
and
presenting, to the first user, at least one of the potential recipients as a candidate recipient with which the first user can share the object identifier.

3 more elements

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing program instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to at least:

detect a selection of an object identifier by a first user;
determine a plurality of potential recipients, each of the plurality of potential recipients associated with the first user;
and
present, to the first user, at least one of the plurality of potential recipients as a candidate recipient with which the first user may share the object identifier.
