Abstract: Methods and systems that provide for cross-linking from composite images that include receiving, over a computer network, a source image and then associating a first identifier tag with a first object in the source image. A composite image is generated from the source image, wherein the composite image includes a cropped image of the first object. Then a first user is notified that the first identifier tag is associated with the first object in the cropped image and also includes a copy of the composite image. Additionally, the user can select the first object in the composite image and be linked to the source image that contains the selected first object where the first object is highlighted.

Abstract: Methods and systems for intelligently cropping images, including receiving, over a computer network, a source image, and then associating a first identifier tag with a first object in the source image. A cropped image is generated from the source image wherein the cropping is based on the first object. The system and method then notifying a first user that the first identifier tag is associated with the first object in the cropped image, wherein the notification includes the cropped image.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to video segment identification and organization based on dynamic characterizations. A characteristics component analyzes a video, and determines a set of video characteristics based at least in part on the analysis. The video characteristics include but are not limited to a category, a type, an identity of a person, and/or an identity of an object. A segmenting component segments the video based in part on the set of video characteristics, and an indicator component associates indicators corresponding to respective video characteristics with the corresponding video segments.

Abstract: The disclosed subject matter relates to systems, methods, and machine-readable media for ordering notifications for display in a social networking environment. One example system is configured to obtain a set of notifications for a user, wherein each notification in the set of notifications is generated in response to an event in a social network and, for each notification in the set of notifications, determine an event type associated with the notification and calculate a priority score for the notification based on the event type associated with the notification. The system is further configured to display the set of notifications based on the priority score for each notification in the set of notifications.

Abstract: Techniques for determining user behavior related to media are described. A media file containing media is received. The media is partitioned into segments. The user-interaction analyzer monitors user behavior with respect to viewing the media and the segments. The user's behavior with respect to viewing the segments is logged. Normal user behavior with respect to the media is determined and stored. Logged user behavior with respect to interaction with a segment of the media is compared with the normal user behavior with respect to the media. Logged user behavior of a particular media segment that deviates from normal relative to the determined normal user behavior is determined. A particular media segment that is not normal is tagged. A user device is configured to display indicia indicating user behavior related to media to help inform which parts users tend to like the most.

Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying sources associated with video clips uploaded by users and stitching those video clips into a single aggregate video according to a desired parameter and/or order. In particular, video clips uploaded by users can be matched to a source. Based upon processing of the video clip and/or source, a set of video clips with related content can be identified. That set of video clips can be ordered according to an ordering parameter. Overlapping and/or missing content can be identified, and the ordered set can be stitched into an aggregate video.

Abstract: A system and method for searching and playing multimedia content on a social network portal is disclosed. The system and method includes hosting a social network portal of a user, wherein the social network portal displays information of the user. The method further includes integrating, on the social network portal of the user, a multimedia controller. A selection or mouse-over of the multimedia controller initiates and controls the playback and selection of a multimedia item on an integrated multimedia player. The method also includes enabling a user to simultaneously navigate the social network portal and stream content via the integrated multimedia player. A user can also search for or request multimedia content via the multimedia controller and player.

Abstract: In one aspect, a system for presenting a share box with content information in response to an endorsement includes an endorsement sharing module that is responsive to user input and creates a sharing box having content derived from the user context and input request. The endorsement sharing module receives a user request to share information. In response, this endorsement sharing module determines the context of the user, retrieves content based on the context, filters the content based on publisher information, personalizes the share box content, and adds the content to a share box. The endorsement sharing module also adds one or more actions to the share box after which the share box is provided for display to the user.

Abstract: A text processing module can allow a user to compose text prior to selecting another application with which to use or communicate the text. A device can include the text processing module, which receives text input from a user via text input means. The device can display the text in a user interface, along with one or more icons associated with software applications with which the text can be used or communicated. After the user has entered text, the user can activate a displayed icon to select the applications. The text processing module receives the selection and interacts with the selected application to display the text in the selected application and/or communicate the text to another person using the selected application. The text processing module can interact with user contacts to identify possible recipients for the text based on information in the text.
