Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a messaging interface that includes a first option for exchanging ephemeral messages with users of a social networking system and a second option for exchanging non-ephemeral messages with users of the social networking system; determine that a user operating the computing device has selected the first option for sending an ephemeral message; and cause the ephemeral message to be sent through the social networking system.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine a first ephemeral message to be shared through a first unified message thread corresponding to a group of recipients, the first ephemeral message being created by a user operating the computing device. The first ephemeral message can be provided to a social networking system for distribution to the group of recipients through the first unified message thread, wherein both ephemeral messages and non-ephemeral messages are exchanged between the group of recipients through the same first unified message thread.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a messaging interface, the messaging interface including one or more options for accessing at least one unified message thread, wherein both ephemeral messages and non-ephemeral messages are exchanged between a group of users through the unified message thread. A determination can be made that a user operating the computing device has created a message to be sent through the unified message thread. The message can be provided for distribution to the group of users through the unified message thread.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a messaging interface, the messaging interface including a first region and a second region, the first region being segmented from the second region; provide access to one or more ephemeral message threads in the first region, the ephemeral message threads being ranked according to one or more criteria; and provide access to one or more non-ephemeral message threads in the second region, the non-ephemeral message threads being ranked according to one or more criteria.

A determination can be made that a user operating the computing device has accessed the unified message thread. Content relating to the unified message thread can be provided for display through the computing device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a messaging interface that includes at least an option for sending ephemeral messages to users of a social networking system and an option for sending non-ephemeral messages to users of the social networking system; and send a message through the social networking system, wherein the message is sent through an ephemeral message thread or a non-ephemeral message thread as designated by a user operating the computing device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a messaging interface, the messaging interface including a first region and a second region, the first region being segmented from the second region; provide one or more options in the first region for sending and receiving ephemeral messages through a social networking system; and provide one or more options in the second region for sending and receiving non-ephemeral messages through the social networking system.
