  • Patent number: 11314821
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, apparatus, and methods for presenting feed items in an information feed. In various implementations, a first result object is received, where the first result object is a data structure including a result of a feed query, where the result of the feed query includes at least one feed item to be included in the information feed, and where the at least one feed item has a first presentation. In various implementations, at least one custom object associated with the at least one feed item is received, where the at least one custom object provides a second presentation of the at least one feed item. In some implementations, the at least one custom object is included with the first result object to define an intermediary data structure. In some implementations, the intermediary data structure is stored on one or more storage mediums.

  • Publication number: 20130018955
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, apparatus, and methods for presenting feed items in an information feed. In various implementations, at least one feed parameter is determined, where the at least one feed parameter identifies a characteristic of at least one feed item to be included in the information feed. In some implementations, at least one feed search strategy is determined based on the determined at least one feed parameter, where the at least one feed search strategy identifies a feed query to be issued to a database system storing the feed items. In various implementations, the at least one feed item is identified based on the determined at least one feed parameter and the at least one feed search strategy. In various implementations, a first result object is generated, where the first result object includes the identified at least one feed item.
