A method, comprising:
- receiving, at a computing device, communications from senders to a user;
- creating, by the computing device, profiles for the senders;
- extracting, by the computing device, links from the communications in response to receiving the communications;
- and
- adding, by the computing device, each of the extracted links to a respective profile for a sender of the communication from which the link is extracted.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium for tangibly storing computer program instructions capable of being executed by a computer processor, the computer program instructions defining the steps of:
- receiving, at the computer processor, communications from senders to a user;
- creating, by the computer processor, profiles for the senders;
- extracting, by the computer processor, links from the communications in response to receiving the communications;
- and
- adding, by the computer processor, each of the extracted links to a respective profile for a sender of the communication from which the link is extracted.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a storage medium for tangibly storing thereon program logic for execution by the processor, the program logic causing the processor to perform the operations of:
- receiving communications from senders to a user;
- creating profiles for the senders;
- extracting links from the communications in response to receiving the communications;
- and
- adding each of the extracted links to a respective profile for a sender of the communication from which the link is extracted.
