Abstract
A social network image pool system can capture one or more image data items (e.g., image, video) in a temporary persistent post pool. The post pool enables for efficient capture of multiple image data items for publishing in a manner that allows multiple images data items to be captured while preserving the editability of the multiple items before they are published to a social network site.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- causing a client device to display a pool user interface element;
- in response to receiving a selection of the pool user interface element, initiating, on the client device, an active social network pool session for multiple image data items;
- generating the multiple image data items without immediately displaying the multiple image data items on the client device;
- storing the multiple image data in a temporary memory allocated for the active social network pool session;
- generating a plurality of review elements on the client device;
- storing modifications associated with each edited image data item;
- transmit selected multiple image data items as ephemeral messages on a social network site;
- and
- terminating the active social network pool session and deleting the multiple image data items from the temporary memory.
A system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- non-transitory memory storing instructions configured to cause the processor to perform:
- causing a client device to display a pool user interface element;
- in response to receiving a selection of the pool user interface element, initiating, on the client device, an active social network pool session for multiple image data items;
- generating the multiple image data items without immediately displaying the multiple image data items on the client device;
- storing the multiple image data in a temporary memory allocated for the active social network pool session;
- generating a plurality of review elements on the client device;
- storing modifications associated with each edited image data item;
- transmit selected multiple image data items as ephemeral messages on a social network site;
- and
- terminating the active social network pool session and deleting the multiple image data items from the temporary memory.
A non-transitory machine-readable medium for storing instructions that, when executed by one or more hardware processors, cause the one or more hardware processors to perform operations comprising:
- causing a client device to display a pool user interface element;
- in response to receiving a selection of the pool user interface element, initiating, on the client device, an active social network pool session for multiple image data items;
- generating the multiple image data items without immediately displaying the multiple image data items on the client device;
- storing the multiple image data in a temporary memory allocated for the active social network pool session;
- generating a plurality of review elements on the client device;
- storing modifications associated with each edited image data item;
- transmit selected multiple image data items as ephemeral messages on a social network site;
- and
- terminating the active social network pool session and deleting the multiple image data items from the temporary memory.
