Abstract
A machine includes a processor and a memory connected to the processor. The memory stores instructions executed by the processor to receive a message and a message parameter indicative of a characteristic of the message, where the message includes a photograph or a video. A determination is made that the message parameter corresponds to a selected gallery, where the selected gallery includes a sequence of photographs or videos. The message is posted to the selected gallery in response to the determination. The selected gallery is supplied in response to a request.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving a request to generate a new media collection, the request comprising a definition for the new media collection;
- generating the new media collection based on the definition for the new media collection;
- receiving a plurality of messages from a plurality of computing devices, each message of the plurality of messages comprising a message parameter indicative of the message, and a photograph or video;
- analyzing each message parameter and photograph or video to determine whether the message parameter or photograph or video corresponds to the new media collection by a characteristic of the message or by recognizing an object in the photograph or video, the new media collection to comprise a sequence of photographs or videos from a plurality of users sharing a common interest;
- and
- based on determining that a message parameter or photograph or video of one or more messages of the plurality of messages corresponds to the new media collection, posting the one or more messages to the new media collection, the new media collection to be supplied for viewing upon request by a computing device.
A computing device comprising:
- a memory that stored instructions;
- and
- one or more processors configured by the instructions to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a request to generate a new media collection, the request comprising a definition for the new media collection;
- generating the new media collection based on the definition for the new media collection;
- receiving a plurality of messages from a plurality of computing devices, each message of the plurality of messages comprising a message parameter indicative of the message, and a photograph or video;
- analyzing each message parameter and photograph or video to determine whether the message parameter or photograph or video corresponds to the new media collection by a characteristic of the message or by recognizing an object in the photograph or video, the new media collection to comprise a sequence of photographs or videos from a plurality of users sharing a common interest;
- and
- based on determining that a message parameter or photograph or video of one or more messages of the plurality of messages corresponds to the new media collection, posting the one or more messages to the new media collection, the new media collection to be supplied for viewing upon request by a computing device.
A computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon that are executable by at least one processor to cause a computing device to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a request to generate a new media collection, the request comprising a definition for the new media collection;
- generating the new media collection based on the definition for the new media collection;
- receiving a plurality of messages from a plurality of computing devices, each message of the plurality of messages comprising a message parameter indicative of the message, and a photograph or video;
- analyzing each message parameter and photograph or video to determine whether the message parameter or photograph or video corresponds to the new media collection by a characteristic of the message or by recognizing an object in the photograph or video, the new media collection to comprise a sequence of photographs or videos from a plurality of users sharing a common interest;
- and
- based on determining that a message parameter or photograph or video of one or more messages of the plurality of messages corresponds to the new media collection, posting the one or more messages to the new media collection, the new media collection to be supplied for viewing upon request by a computing device.
