Publication number: 20160125061Abstract: A server and method for providing a content selection is provided. The server receives content targeting parameters and obtains content items from at least one content site based on the content targeting parameters. The server can further identify content descriptors for the content items and generate a first content cluster from a subset of the content items based on the content descriptors. The server can further generate a second content cluster from a second subset of the content items based on the content descriptors and rank the first and the second content clusters in an order of usefulness. The ranking of the content clusters can be based on at least one of an importance of content, a recentness of the content items and a size of the content cluster.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 29, 2014Publication date: May 5, 2016Inventors: Yakov NEIMAN, Deborah Christine HALL, Michael GIRGIS, Oshoma MOMOH, Paul Keith COWAN, Michael Victor CAMPAGNARO, Kyu LEE
