Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining a target template and processing the target template to identify at least one component of the target template. The method also includes searching at least one collection of content to identify at least a first instance of content that substantially matches the component of the target template. The first instance of content is presented as substantially matching the component. Finally, a first arrangement that includes the first instance of content is created. Such a first arrangement is associated with a mash-up related to the target template.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises registering content providers, each content provider having a corresponding independent moderation policy configured for selectively providing network access to a media content item supplied by a user; receiving, from a first of the content providers, a first notification that a first media content item has been moderated by the first content provider; and sending a second notification to at least a second of the content providers, the second notification identifying that the first content provider has moderated the first media content item, the second notification enabling the second content provider to moderate the first media content item based on the second notification and according to the corresponding independent moderation policy of the second content provider.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes establishing a session by associating at least a first party with the session. The first party is associated with a first device, and is associated with the session through the first device. The method also includes defining an effective user to include the first party, tracking actions taken with respect to the session by the effective user, and attributing the actions taken with respect to the session by the effective user to the first party and to the effective user.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises identifying, by a device, an addressable media stream selected for presentation by a user; identifying, by the device, a user input that is input by the user during presentation of the addressable media stream to the user, the user input identified relative to an identified position within the addressable media stream; defining by the device a media clip from the addressable media stream based on determining the user input demonstrates a favorable affinity by the user toward the identified position, the defining including the device selecting a media clip start position within the addressable media stream and that precedes the identified position, and the device selecting a media clip end position that follows the identified position; and creating by the device a summary media clip of the addressable media stream that includes at least the media clip.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises collecting, by a server from a user device, a comment input by a user into the user device, the collecting including identifying a time that the user generated the comment; associating, by the server, the comment input by the user with an identifiable addressable media stream and at an identified position within the addressable media stream that is coincident with the time that the user generated the comment relative to an event presented in the addressable media stream; and generating and outputting by the server a media comment message that identifies the user, the comment generated by the user, the addressable media stream and the identified position within the addressable media stream coinciding with the time that the user generated the comment.
