Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically analyzing on-line conversations or similar discourses among individuals and determining through such analyses outcomes of the conversations as evidenced, for example, by expressions of sentiment during the conversation. Sentiments are derived from analyses of intentions of a user as expressed in an on-line conversation or other user generated content (UGC). These intentions are identified and subsequently acted upon, for example by making others aware of the conversation and suggesting possible responses to the UGC. The intention signals derived from the UGC may also be used to fashion or update a user profile or inform a broader view of the individual associated with the UGC.

Abstract: Intentions of a user as expressed in an on-line conversation or other user generated content (UGC) are identified and subsequently acted upon, for example by bringing relevant or related content to the attention of the user and/or making others aware of the conversation. The intention signals derived from the UGC may be used to fashion or update a user profile or inform a broader view of the individual associated with the UGC.

Abstract: Content is inserted into conversations hosted on a takeoff site using creatives that provide lures and links to other material that users engaged in the conversation might find helpful and relevant. Such insertions are made in a contextually meaningful fashion through the use of a matching and decision process that determines best candidate creatives and an appropriate time and place for their insertion into the conversation.
