  • Publication number: 20180157461
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to streaming influencer device audio content to listener devices. In some embodiments, a computing platform may receive, from a first influencer device, first stream information associated with a first music stream. Subsequently, the computing platform may identify a plurality of listener devices that subscribe to receive music streams from the first influencer device. The music sharing computing platform then may evaluate first tracking information associated with a first listener device of the plurality of listener devices to enforce one or more playback restrictions on the first listener device, and may evaluate second tracking information associated with a second listener device of the plurality of listener devices to enforce the one or more playback restrictions on the second listener device. Based on evaluating the tracking information, the computing platform may share the first music stream with the first listener device and the second listener device.

  • Publication number: 20120072835
    Abstract: Methods, computer readable media, and apparatuses for providing user interfaces, determining screen layouts, and displaying microblog posts are presented. A microblog client may receive a set of microblog posts and provide a user interface for displaying the received microblog posts. The microblog client also may parse the received posts and identify one or more content elements within the posts. The microblog client may then download additional information based on the content elements, and may determine a screen layout for displaying the posts based on the content elements and the additional downloaded information. In certain examples, microblog posts may be parsed and the additional related information may be downloaded prior to the selection of the posts in the user interface. The determination of a screen layout for displaying the microblog posts may also depend on the display characteristics, for example, screen size or orientation of a client device.
