Abstract: Techniques for identifying mutual interests between users of a social networking system are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method includes steps of identifying, in a social networking system, a content object that has been interacted by a first user of the social networking system; associating, in the social networking system, a keyword with the first user, the keyword having been previously associated with the content object; and determining, in the social networking system, a mutual interest for the first user and a second user of the social networking system by identifying a match between the keyword associated with the first user with a keyword associated with the second user.

Abstract: Particular embodiments receive a request to display images in a scrolling 3D presentation. Images are retrieved according to selection criteria. The images may be sorted according to sorting criteria. Sponsored images may be inserted into the scrolling 3D presentation. The scrolling 3D presentation of images is provided for display on a computing device associated with a viewer. Images in the scrolling 3D presentation are rendered so as to sequentially approach the viewer according to a perspective of the viewer. Control requests related to the scrolling 3D presentation may be received from the viewer, from a social-networking system, or from a third-party server. A control interface may be provided for the viewer to submit control requests.

Abstract: Techniques for identifying mutual interests between users of a social networking system are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method includes identifying, by a social networking system, a content object with which a first user of the social networking system has interacted. The social networking associates a keyword phrase with the first user. The keyword phrase has been previously associated with the content object. The social networking system further determines a mutual interest for the first user and a second user of the social networking system by identifying a match between the keyword phrase associated with the first user with a keyword phrase associated with the second user.

Abstract: Techniques to confirm account registration. In one embodiment, an MSISDN associated with a mobile device is received. It is determined whether to confirm registration of an account with a social networking system based at least in part on the MSISDN. Receipt of the MSISDN may include receipt of an HTTP request. The HTTP request may include an HTTP header with the MSISDN and a phone number associated with the mobile device. The MSISDN and the phone number may be compared. Registration may be confirmed based on a match between the MSISDN and the phone number.
