Abstract: Techniques for granting rights for content on a social network to multiple users include determining first data. It is also determined to associate a first user identifier and at least a second user identifier with the first data. It is further determined to grant a right for the first data to a first user identified by the first user identifier and at least a second user identified by the second user identifier.

Abstract: An approach is provided for providing collaborative recognition using media segments. The recognition platform causes, at least in part, a generation of a request to determine recognition information for one or more media items associated with a device, one or more segments of the one or more media items, or a combination thereof. Next, the recognition platform determines to transmit the request to one or more other devices based, at least in part, on one or more device selection criteria. Then, the recognition platform receives the recognition information in response to the request. Further, the recognition platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of the recognition information to determine one or more identities of one or more users, one or more objects, or a combination thereof represented in the one or more media items.

Abstract: An approach is provided for enabling dynamic user based search within a distributed information space. A request for conducting a search over one or more information spaces is distributed to one or more autonomous agents. The autonomous agents process the request according to one or more functions specific to the one or more autonomous agents. Results are rendered to an interface of a user device in response to the search request.

Abstract: An approach is presented for browsing content files. The data manager determines to present a file at a device. Further, the data manager receives an input for selecting one or more of elements of metadata associated with the file based, at least in part, on the presentation of the file. Then, the data manager determines to select one or more other files based, at least in part, on the input.
