Abstract
Methods and systems to obtain content and generate modified content based on a time limited content consumption information is disclosed. In one embodiment, content may be obtained from a content source and modified based on the time limited content consumption information. In one embodiment, such modified content is stored in a memory of a content modification system and subsequently delivered to a target consumer.
Claims17
A system comprising:
- an interface to obtain content on behalf of a target consumer;
- a memory;
- and
- a processor to perform operations including:
- modifying the content to generate modified content, the modified content based on time limited content consumption information associated with the target consumer, wherein the modified content is stored in the memory;
- initiating transmission of the modified content to a first electronic device associated with the target consumer;
- in response to user input, marking a portion of the modified content for delivery to a second electronic device associated with the target consumer to generate a marked portion, wherein the marked portion corresponds to a first portion of the modified content that was not displayed at the first electronic device, and wherein the user input indicates that the target consumer has not viewed the portion of the modified content;
- and
- initiating transmission of the marked portion of the second device, wherein the marked portion is distinct from a second portion of the modified content that was displayed at the first electronic device, and wherein the marked portion is not delivered to the first electronic device.
6 more elements
A method comprising:
- receiving information associated with a target consumer, the information indicating a time limited content consumption period;
- modifying content based on the information to generate modified content, the modified content stored in a computer memory;
- initiating transmission of the modified content to a first electronic device associated with the target consumer;
- in response to user input, marking a portion of the modified content for delivery to a second electronic device associated with the target consumer to generate a marked portion, wherein the marked portion corresponds to a first portion of the modified content that was not displayed at the first electronic device, and wherein the user input indicates that the target consumer has not viewed the portion of the modified content;
- and
- initiating transmission of the marked portion of the second device, wherein the marked portion is distinct from a second portion of the modified content that was displayed at the first electronic device, and wherein the marked portion is not delivered to the first electronic device.
3 more elements
A computer-readable storage device comprising operational instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations including:
- obtaining content on behalf of a target consumer;
- modifying the content based on time limited content consumption information associated with the target consumer to produce modified content;
- initiating transmission of the modified content to a first electronic device associated with the target consumer;
- in response to user input, marking a portion of the modified content for delivery to a second electronic device associated with the target consumer to generate a marked portion, wherein the marked portion content corresponds to a first portion of the modified content that was not displayed at the first electronic device, and wherein the user input indicates that the target consumer has not viewed the portion of the modified content;
- and
- initiating transmission of the marked portion of the second device, wherein the marked portion is distinct from a second portion of the modified content that was displayed at the first electronic device, and wherein the marked portion is not delivered to the first electronic device.
