Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for receiving, at a server computer, a plurality of content messages from a plurality of content sources, each content message comprising media content, for each of the plurality of content messages received, associating the media content with a predetermined media collection, and storing the content message in a database. The system and methods further providing for causing the plurality of content messages to be displayed on an operator device with other content messages associated with the media collection, determining that a predetermined trigger related to the media collection has been activated, updating an identifier of the media collection from a first indicator to a second indicator indicating an action needs to be taken on the media collection, and causing the updated identifier with the second indicator to be displayed on an operator device.

Abstract: A server-side administrative interface for a social media platform allows for restriction of defined geographical areas. Social media items originating from such restricted areas are automatically filtered or age-restricted for availability via a map-based graphical user interface of the social media platform.

Abstract: A map-based graphical user interface for a social media application displays to social media activity information based on submission of geo-tagged social media items to the platform. Geographical distributions of social activity is displayed on a map forming part of the application. A heatmap can represent posting density or unusualness.

Abstract: Among other things, embodiments of the present disclosure improve the functionality of electronic messaging and imaging software and systems by determining the current activities of users based on location sensor information from the users' computing devices and generating customized media content items based on their activities. The media content can be generated for a variety of topics and shared with other users. For example, media content (e.g., images or video) can be generated and displayed on a user's computing device, as well as transmitted to other users via electronic communications, such as short message service (SMS) or multimedia service (MMS) texts and emails.

Abstract: A method and apparatus provides a user of a mobile device with a notification after an application (also referred to as an “app”) has been downloaded and installed. A user interacting with an original app can select a link to download a new app. After download and installation of the new app has been requested, the original app polls the operating system to determine if the new app has been installed. A notification is provided to the user by the original app after the new app has been installed. A notification is also transmitted to an external server indicating that a user has requested downloaded, installed, and/or opened the application.

Abstract: Techniques to manage information for dynamic reports are described. An apparatus may comprise a business planning application module to update a current period reference to a time member of a time dimension, generate a rolling data entry form with actual data members and forecast data members based on the current period reference, and set a data locking mode for the actual data members and a data access mode for the forecast data members. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes selecting a first member of a first dimension of a database to be included at a first location in a report. The first member includes first data to be retrieved from the database. A blank space to be added at a second location relative to the first member is also selected. A database query is generated that includes a first instruction to retrieve first data included in the first member. The first instruction is located at a first position in the query and the first data will appear in the report at the first location. The database query also includes a second instruction to retrieve a null set of data. The second instruction is located at a second position in the query and the null set of data will appear in the report at the second location.
