Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates access to content. During operation, the system provides access to a set of content items associated with at least one user account in a synchronized content management system through a file chooser on an electronic device. Next, the system provides one or more filters for viewing the content items through the file chooser, wherein the one or more filters are based at least in part on synchronization data associated with the set of content items.

Abstract: System and method for group participation in a digital media presentation are provided that are capable of selecting digital media items for inclusion in the presentation from multiple participant's accounts thereby creating a group presentation in which digital media items of each participant are included in the presentation. Selections of digital media items for inclusion in the presentation can be made directly at the direction of the participations or inferentially according to a selection algorithm. Selections can be made during the presentation thereby allowing a participant to join the presentation after it has started and contribute digital media items to the presentation while it is running.

Abstract: The embodiments provide methods and systems for detecting and preventing phishing of a user's information, such as their username and password. In one embodiment, a website detects as a threshold matter whether the user has arrive at the site due to an automatic redirection from a prior visited site or by the user having clicked on a link to the website from the previous site. If this threshold is met, then the prior website is evaluated based on various criteria to determine if it appears to be a phishing site. If phishing is suspected, then the user may be notified and various other protective actions may be performed.

Abstract: A file upload widget is provided on a website to enable the upload of files to a website from an account within a content management system. The file upload widget may be used to: (1) allow a user to select files from a content management system, such as a synced online content management system; and (2) initiate the upload of the files directly from the content management system to the website. In various embodiments, this may: (1) allow the user to upload files that are not stored locally on the computing device being used to access the file upload widget; and (2) allow the user to complete the upload of files by initiating the transfer of files and then logging off of the website (and/or powering down their computing device) before the transfer of files is complete, which may result in a more convenient and enjoyable upload process.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for uploading a content item to a content management system in fixed size data blocks. A client device can split a content item into fixed size data blocks and create a unique identifier for each of the fixed size data blocks. The unique identifiers can be and transmitted to the content management system to determine which fixed size data blocks are already stored on the content management system. The client device can create a unique identifier for a fixed size data block by using at least a portion of the fixed size data block as input in a hashing algorithm. The resulting hash output can be the unique identifier. The content management system can search for the unique identifiers in a content item index that lists the unique identifier for each fixed size data block stored on the content management system.
