Abstract: A scrapbooking social network that enables a digital scrapbook to be crowd-designed by a posting device and social network user devices with which that posting device has a pre-defined relationship. A social network user device assigns a closeness rating to a plurality of user devices within that social network user devices' scrapbooking social network. The social network user device also assigns a share level to each scrapbook entry posted thereby. A social network share level assigned to a scrapbook post is based on actual content sensitivity, and permits each shared scrapbook post to be viewed/edited by other social network user devices based on their assigned closeness rating. Social network user devices with a closeness rating equal to or higher than a share level setting assigned to scrapbook entry can view/edit that scrapbook entry. Social network user devices can contribute simultaneously, or at least separately, to a scrapbook entry.
