For example, the viewing user's relationship to and/or similar characteristics with other users on the guest list is determined and used by the social networking system to identify the users whose responses to invitations are shown to the viewing user via the page. Additionally, a notification method more prominently distributes acceptances of invitations to other users to encourage attendance.

Abstract: A graphical item chooser sorts candidate products or services by initially classifying each of one or more objective icons as a primary objective icon or a secondary objective icon. Each objective icon represents one or more desired characteristics of a product or service that facilitates a particular objective. The graphical item chooser may further determine at least one most desired characteristic of the ideal product or service. The determination is made based on a frequency that each desired characteristic is represented by the one or more objective icons. Having made the determination, the graphical item chooser then sorts the candidate products or services based at least on similarities between one or more characteristics of each candidate product or service and the at least one most desired characteristic. Following the sort, the graphical item chooser generates a sorted list of suitable products or services.
