  • Patent number: 9104751
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for presenting supplemental search results having indications that identified documents have been endorsed by the user and/or social network connections of the user are provided. A search query is received and it is determined that the user's social networking data is available. Documents that have been endorsed by the user and/or social network connections of the user are searched to identify those that satisfy the input search query. The satisfying documents are assigned a relevance score to determine whether each satisfying document is relevant enough to be shown and to determine placement of the document on the SERP relative to standard search results. Upon rendering of the SERP, a supplemental search result identifying documents that were endorsed by the user and/or social network connections of the user is presented, as is an indication about which social network connection(s) of the user endorsed the document.

  • Patent number: 8886791
    Abstract: Concepts and technologies are described herein for generating informational alerts. Notifications are received from both unmanaged devices and managed services. The received notifications may be annotated to create annotated notations. The notifications may be annotated with privacy data that defines the terms under which the notifications may be provided to others. The notifications may also be annotated with compensation data that defines the financial terms under which the notifications may be provided to others. Standing and ad-hoc queries may be performed against the annotated notifications. The results of the queries may be provided to one or more user devices as an informational alert.

  • Publication number: 20130212081
    Abstract: Systems, computer-readable media, and methods for tagging documents based on a graph pertaining to one or more entities which a user has included in a search query. The user may have at least one social networking relationship with the entity. A search engine is configured to display a search engine results page in response to the search query received from the user. The search engine may also receive suggested tags that identify documents that could be linked to the entity identified in the query. The user may confirm that the suggested tags are appropriate via feedback that is transmitted to the search engine. In turn, the search engine updates a graph to reflect a number of users that agree with the suggested tag.

  • Publication number: 20130110802
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for tagging uniform resource locators (URLs) included in a search engine results page are provided. Upon receipt of a search query that includes a name of an entity, the server device provides search results and entry fields to tag one or more URLs that correspond to the entity. The server device obtains a social network of the user that provided the query. The server device processes the social network to locate entities that match the query and that are within a threshold number of hops. The user may tag one or more URLs with social network account information for the entities based on authorization information received from an owner that manages the social network account.

  • Publication number: 20130097143
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for presenting results of search queries with indications that at least a portion of such results has been endorsed by the user and/or social network connections of the user, are provided. Upon receipt of a search query, Web search results satisfying the query are determined. Satisfying search results that have been endorsed by the requesting user and/or one or more social network connections of the requesting user are identified. Upon presentation of the search results on the SERF, those results that were identified as having been endorsed by the requesting user and/or one or more social network connections of the requesting user are annotated as such. In this way, the requesting user may be able to more readily identify personally relevant results as the annotated results have been indicated to be preferences of the user and/or his or her social network connections.

  • Patent number: 8326880
    Abstract: Concepts and technologies are described herein for summarizing streams of information. A stream of information is obtained and analyzed. One or more entities are identified in the stream. The data in the stream is grouped into one or more clusters corresponding to the identified entities. The data in the clusters is summarized, and a timeline corresponding to the data in the cluster is determined. In some embodiments, a format can be selected for presentation of the summarized stream data. The data in the stream can be formatted in the selected format, and the summarized data can be presented in the selected format. In some embodiments, an update feature can be used to update the data in the summarized stream. The data in the stream can be updated, and the updated summarized stream can be formatted and presented.

  • Publication number: 20110178995
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for searching microblog entries. The microblog entries may be generated through a single microblog website or across multiple microblog sites. Upon receiving a search input, a series of microblog entries responsive to the search input may be displayed to the user. The displayed microblog entries may be the most recently generated microblog entries that are responsive to the search input. In another embodiment, the microblog entries returned are a best match to the search criteria, which may be based on a user authority score for a user that drafted a microblog entry and additional characteristics of the microblog entry.
