Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product display information about selected content in a social network. Multiple icons representative of content are displayed. Via input from a user, an item of the content is selected by selecting one of the multiple icons. In response to the selecting, a tooltip is displayed. The tooltip includes relevant information about the selected item and affinity data that provides a probability of similar interests between the user and the selected item.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product provide an affinity between a first entity and a second entity on a social network. First affinity data for a first entity is determined. The first affinity data is first behavioral data and first categorical data. Second affinity data for the second entity is determined. The second affinity data is second behavioral data and second categorical data. The first affinity data is compared to the second affinity data resulting in an affinity score. The affinity score identifies a probability of similar interests between the first entity and the second entity based on behavioral similarities between the first behavioral data and the second behavioral data, and categorical similarities between the first categorical data and the second categorical data. The affinity score is then provided to the first entity.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for displaying top fan status information relating to selected content in a social network. An item of content is selected in a social network application. An engagement score is determined for each of one or more first users. Each engagement score is based on interactions of each of the one or more first users with the selected item of content. A subset of the one or more first users that has interacted with the item of social content the most is identified and displayed.

Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, and computer program product provides the ability to determine the influence of a user or resource within a pre-defined context. A pre-defined context of activities is provided/defined. Point values are assigned to all activities that may occur within the pre-defined context. All activities for a single user or resource within the pre-defined context are tracked over a period of time. A score value for each activity for the single user or resource within the pre-defined context over a period of time is determined. A raw score is calculated for the single user or resource according to the total of all determined score values. The raw score value is normalized against scores of a population of other users or resources within the pre-determined context to provide a comparative scoring for users or resources.

Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, and computer program product provide the ability to present media content on a social media network. Live streaming data is received from multiple data sources. The data is enriched with meta information using internal systems via application programming interfaces (APIs). The live streamed data is transformed and transmitted, based on the meta information, to one or more users on a social media network.

Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, and computer program product provide the ability to recommend content to a particular user. Two content recommendation techniques are implemented and generated different content recommendation scores that are relative to a particular piece of content and the particular user. The two scores are reconciled to generate an overall content recommendation score for the particular piece of content and the particular user.

Abstract: A system, method, and article of manufacture provide the ability to manage event-based information/content. A client application uploads information about an event to an event application executing on a server. The event application manages information for an event site that corresponds to an event that multiple persons attend and is an electronic representation of the event. The event application receives the uploaded information and manages client access to the uploaded information.
