  • Patent number: 10097631
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a first document including at least one content item and an interactive feature which allows users to post comments or additional content in response to the content item. The first document is associated with at least one entity, and is provided from a first web domain. A second document is selected from a second web domain, where the second document has a common content item with the first document, is also associated with the entity, and has its own interactive feature for user posts. A user post is received in connection with the first document, and the interactive features of the first document and the second document are synchronized so that the user post appears in both documents at substantially the same time.

  • Patent number: 9509768
    Abstract: An online system transmits third-party content originating from a third-party system to a client device. The third-party content includes a pointer to a third-party application associated with the third-party system. When the client device receives an interaction with the third-party content from a user of the client device, the client device executes the third-party application and generates an attribution identifier from which the user's identity cannot be determined. The attribution identifier is transmitted to the online system. Subsequently, the client device determines information describing interactions by the user with the third-party application that is transmitted to the third-party system along with the attribution identifier.
