Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a messaging interface that includes a first option for exchanging ephemeral messages with users of a social networking system and a second option for exchanging non-ephemeral messages with users of the social networking system; determine that a user operating the computing device has selected the first option for sending an ephemeral message; and cause the ephemeral message to be sent through the social networking system.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine a first ephemeral message to be shared through a first unified message thread corresponding to a group of recipients, the first ephemeral message being created by a user operating the computing device. The first ephemeral message can be provided to a social networking system for distribution to the group of recipients through the first unified message thread, wherein both ephemeral messages and non-ephemeral messages are exchanged between the group of recipients through the same first unified message thread.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a messaging interface, the messaging interface including one or more options for accessing at least one unified message thread, wherein both ephemeral messages and non-ephemeral messages are exchanged between a group of users through the unified message thread. A determination can be made that a user operating the computing device has created a message to be sent through the unified message thread. The message can be provided for distribution to the group of users through the unified message thread.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a messaging interface, the messaging interface including a first region and a second region, the first region being segmented from the second region; provide access to one or more ephemeral message threads in the first region, the ephemeral message threads being ranked according to one or more criteria; and provide access to one or more non-ephemeral message threads in the second region, the non-ephemeral message threads being ranked according to one or more criteria.

A determination can be made that a user operating the computing device has accessed the unified message thread. Content relating to the unified message thread can be provided for display through the computing device.

Abstract: According to one aspect of the invention, a method for directing the use of a sprayer includes the step of directing a user to affix a sprayer to a neck of a water bottle (114) via an attachment mechanism (112). The method further includes the step of directing the user to adjust the attachment mechanism (112) to change the internal geometry thereof and attach the sprayer to the neck of the bottle.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a messaging interface that includes at least an option for sending ephemeral messages to users of a social networking system and an option for sending non-ephemeral messages to users of the social networking system; and send a message through the social networking system, wherein the message is sent through an ephemeral message thread or a non-ephemeral message thread as designated by a user operating the computing device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a messaging interface, the messaging interface including a first region and a second region, the first region being segmented from the second region; provide one or more options in the first region for sending and receiving ephemeral messages through a social networking system; and provide one or more options in the second region for sending and receiving non-ephemeral messages through the social networking system.
