Abstract: An enterprise-based social networking application. Events for individuals may be collected from various enterprise-based information systems automatically using adaptors that are specially tailored for particular types of information systems. Such events may then be used to populate event feeds regarding individuals in that enterprise. A filtering model for formulating event feeds identifies events by individual, event type, and event time. The filter also identifies which individuals are in which group of a participant, and identifies which groups correspond to which event types. Incoming events may then be filtered into the event feeds depending on the group to which the individual belongs. Filtering an event from an events pool to formulate an event feed is also provided.

Abstract: Various embodiments can be configured to provide a social networking computing environment. In an embodiment, a networked computing system can be used to provide informational feeds and commenting functionality to users of a social computing environment. In one embodiment, an enterprise-based social computing system can be configured to provide informational feeds to social networking application users. An informational feed can be populated with events and other information associated with one or more users of interest of an application user, but is not so limited. In one embodiment, a social computing environment can be configured to allow user commenting to feed items or events that are associated with a user or group of users.

Abstract: An enterprise-based social networking application. The events pool for the social networking application may be automatically populated without requiring direct individual participation in the social networking application. Furthermore, networks may be established automatically, without an expressed invitation. The default network may be based on a participant's communication history and/or organization context within the enterprise. The participant may then edit or expand the network without necessarily requesting permission for the individuals being added, and without necessarily being part of that individual's network.
