Abstract: One variation of a method for displaying a product-related image to a user while shopping includes: loading an image to a social networking system; receiving a tag including identification of an item visible in a region of the image; based on the tag, correlating the item with a product; posting the image to a social feed within the social networking system, the social feed including a set of photos related to the product; receiving a scan from a user, the scan generated through a mobile computing device carried by the user; correlating the scan with the product; and displaying the image within a social networking interface accessible through a display of the mobile computing device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media acquire an image captured with a mobile device. Motion sensor data of the mobile device at or near a time when the image was captured is acquired. An angle of rotation is computed based on the motion sensor data, and the image is transformed based on the angle of rotation. In another aspect, a user interface enables user control over image transformation. The user interface enables user control over rotating an image on a display at two or more granularities. A point of rotation may be user-defined. Rotated images may be scaled to fit within a viewing frame for displaying the transformed image.

Abstract: Image processing includes: applying shader code to an original image to generate a blurred image version (BIV); obtaining a composite image that is generated based at least in part on the original image and the BIV, wherein the composite image is generated by: obtaining a mask that includes an unblurred region and a blurred region; applying the mask to combine the original image and the BIV to render a composite image that includes an unblurred portion comprising a portion of the original image corresponding to the unblurred region of the mask, and a blurred portion comprising a portion of the BIV corresponding to the blurred region of the mask; and outputting the composite image to be displayed.

Abstract: One variation of a method for linking images in social feeds to branded content includes: loading an image to a social networking system; receiving, from a first user, a tag including identification of an item visible in a particular region of the image; associating the tag with the particular region of the image; based on the tag, correlating the item with a particular brand; posting the image to a social feed of the particular brand within the social networking system; and in response to interaction with the image, in the social feed, by a second user, directing the second user to brand content specified by the particular brand.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine content captured and provided by a first wearable device associated with a first user of a social networking system; determine a second wearable device linked to the first wearable device; and provide the captured content to a computing device of a second user associated with the second wearable device, the captured content being provided through the social networking system.
