Abstract: Systems, computer-implemented methods, and media for updating content of a page composed of markup language in response to a triggering event method include: receiving a request that indicates a triggering event; determining the type of triggering event based on the request; determining at least one page element from amongst plural page elements of the page to be updated based on the request; generating a response to the request, the response including metadata indicating the at least one page element and the content of the at least one page element, the content of the at least one page element being composed of the markup language; and transmitting the response.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and storage media for authenticating a remote viewing device for rendering digital content are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: transmit an initial display to be displayed on the viewing device; receive a request, from the viewing device, to view content; transmit an indication of the request to a mobile device associated with a user who is authorized to view the content; receive, from the mobile device, approval of the viewing device for viewing the content; and authenticate the viewing device for viewing the content in response to the approval of viewing device whereby the content can be viewed on the viewing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for making video content recommendations. Metadata relating to at least one content item consumed by the user is received. The video data is stored as at least one video data file for each of the content items and frame change times are extracted for each of the content items from corresponding of the at least one video data file. Frame image files are created for each of the content items based on corresponding sets of the frame times and entity data is extracted from the frame files. Audio data of each of the content items is converted to text data and the entity data and the text data are merged for each content item to create a list of tokens corresponding to each content item. A document vector is determined for each content item based on the list of tokens corresponding to that content item and the similarity of each item of content to each item in a different set of content items is determined based on the vectors.

Abstract: A content management server monitors activity on a social networking system originating from an authorized user account. The server detects a post by the account that contains a predefined trigger tag. The server creates a story record in a web publishing application on the server responsive to detecting the post containing the predefined trigger tag. The server automatically generates a direct messaging conversation to populate additional fields of the story record. The server detects a closing inbound direct message from the account containing a publish tag, and responsive to detecting the closing inbound direct message, automatically publishes the story record.

Abstract: Systems and methods for easily navigating a collection of editorial content related to products are described. Embodiments of the invention provide seamless, continuous, structured access to relevant product reviews. Users of embodiments of the invention can advance from one product review to another by selecting navigational buttons representing the previous and next product reviews from within a product review currently being viewed. The previous product review represents the review the user was viewing prior to the currently viewed review. The next product review is determined based on a simple learning engine that presents the next relevant product, along with another relevant product that is, for example, either cheaper or more expensive than the review being currently viewed. This simplifies the user experience by eliminating the need to go back to a listing page to research products similar to the product whose review is being viewed.

Abstract: A method for providing an interactive interface for live event outcome selection and prediction may include generating a set of cells for an event. The set of cells may be provided to a client device to present in a user interface. A selection of a cell may be received from the client device. The selected cell may be assigned to a user account. The method may generate a coordinate for each cell in the set, wherein each cell coordinate includes a plurality of dimensions, each dimension corresponding to a different entity of the event, and wherein each cell coordinate is unique for the set of cells. The method may comprise calculating, prior to the start of the event, a probability that an event result represented by a cell coordinate will occur; and presenting the probability in association with the cell on the user interface. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
