Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a Content Delivery Network (CDN) for broadcasting data streams. The CDN allows a streamer to stream live (in realtime) on a network(s), such as the Internet, for a live audience to view and to interact with the live entertainment. Each of the broadcast clients send data streams to the CDN via an input node, wherein the CDN output a selected media stream to one or more selected viewing clients via the output node. The architecture of the CDN contains one or more System Racks. Each of the System Racks contains multiple media channels. In operation, the data stream of a broadcasting client is sent to the CDN and distributed into selected channels. The data streams in each of the selected channels are outputted to viewing clients of a corresponding type.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to streaming real-time messages over time to client applications according to query subscriptions that match content from a large stream of messages exchanged on a messaging platform in a manner that increases the speed of message delivery, effectively controls the management of computer resources to handle the fluctuation of the number of active query subscriptions, and/or increases the security of matching the query subscriptions against messages generated from the perspective of the authors while delivering those messages in real-time from the perspective of the users that initiated the query subscriptions.

Abstract: An example social media messaging system may include a capability for a user to edit messages after the messages have been posted to the messaging system. The capability is implemented in a manner that preserves the immutability of messages that are posted to the messaging system.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a social entertainment platform that supports live social video streaming and messaging. One common use for this social entertainment platform is to allow audience members to watch and interact with a person playing an electronic game. The social entertainment platform allows a streamer to stream live (in substantially real-time) on a network(s), such as the Internet, for a live audience to view and to respond to the live entertainment. The social entertainment platform includes several unique areas, including a real-time broadcasting component, a real-time messaging component, and an integrated user interface (UI) component, that make the social entertainment platform advantageous to use over traditional platforms.
