Techniques to share images in a social networking system. In an embodiment, an image is received from a first user, the image is associated with a first archive of the first user within a social networking system, and the image is associated with a second archive of a second user within the social networking system without the social networking system receiving a request from the second user to download the image.

The image may be received from a mobile device. The image may be captured by a camera of a mobile device. The image may be automatically uploaded from a mobile device. A request may be received from the second user to include the image in the second archive associated with the second user. Associating the image with the second archive of the second user may comprise including a link to the image in the second archive.

Separate user accounts can be linked into a group of linked user accounts so that content items assigned to each of the user accounts can be accessed by each user account in the group. Linking user accounts in this way allows the individual user accounts to share content items while also retaining their individual properties such as username, password, preference data, etc. Linking user accounts allows each user account to retain the content items assigned to the user account when the user account is unlinked from the group. Linking user accounts can be restricted according to linking rules that dictate how many user accounts can be included in a group, when a user account can be added or removed from a group, etc. A master user account can set parameters restricting content items accessible to the user accounts in the group, as well as money spent be each user account.

The present disclosure discloses a method and a computer server for searching for a short-distance object and pertains to the field of mobile terminal technologies. The method includes: receiving a short-distance object search request sent by a target terminal; obtaining location information of the target terminal from the short-distance object search request; separately determining, according to the location information of the target terminal, location information of prestored objects for short-distance object search, and multiple preset distance ranges, objects whose distances from the target terminal fall within each distance range, to obtain one or more objects corresponding to each distance range; separately randomly selecting at least one to-be-presented object from the one or more objects corresponding to each distance range; and returning the to-be-presented objects to be presented on the target terminal. By means of the present disclosure, effectiveness of a short-distance object search function can be enhanced.

A system for selecting an image to accompany text from a user in connection with a social media post. The system includes receiving text from the user; identifying one or more search terms based on the text; identifying candidate images from images in one or more image databases using the search terms, where the candidate images comprise a sponsored image; presenting one or more candidate images to the user, where the sponsored image is presented preferentially compared to other candidate images; receiving from the user a selected image from the one or more candidate images; generating the social media post comprising the selected image and the user-submitted text; and transmitting the social media post for display.

A method, apparatus, and computer readable medium are provided for maximizing consumption of broadcasts by a producer. An example method includes receiving selection of a total number of time slots to use for scheduling broadcasts, and receiving information regarding the producer's followers. The example method further 5 includes identifying, by a processor and based on the received information, discount factors associated with the producer's followers, and calculating, by the processor and based on the received information, a predicted number of competitor broadcasts during each time slot of the total number of time slots. Finally, the example method includes determining, by the processor and based on the discount factors and the predicted 10 number of competitor broadcasts during each time slot, a number of broadcasts for the producer to transmit in each time slot of the total number of time slots.

Techniques for providing reminders based on social interactions between users of electronic devices are described. Social reminders can be set to trigger based on social interactions of users. For example, a user may request to be reminded to discuss a certain discussion topic with a particular phonebook contact, when the user next encounters the contact.

An information processing method, a server, and a computer storage medium are disclosed. The method includes: obtaining first information from a first terminal, the first information including at least information content and an information presentation style parameter; obtaining second information from the second terminal, the second information including at least basic user information and/or user behavior information and/or user relationship chain information; generating sampling information according to the first information and the second information, and constructing, according to the sampling information, at least one processing policy that separately corresponds to a first type of processing node interacting with the first terminal and a second type of processing node interacting with the second terminal; and generating the third information according to the first information and the at least one processing policy, and sending the third information to the second terminal for information presentation.

The present invention relates to a robot service system and a robot apparatus using a social network service, and comprises: (a) a step in which a terminal device is connected to a robot apparatus by executing a social network service program, and displays a service screen on which an image captured by the robot apparatus is displayed; (b) a step in which the terminal device transmits a robot control command inputted to the service screen to the robot apparatus; (c) a step in which the robot apparatus performs an operation according to the robot control command and transmits operation performance data to the terminal device; and (d) a step in which the terminal device displays the operation performance data transmitted from the robot apparatus on the service screen.

A monitoring and maintenance system that utilizes imperial and theoretical data to compare parts, vehicles, users, regions, wear intensity indexes over time and tracking information to provide a sophisticated data collection system for heavy-duty equipment or rental equipment. This tracking is designed to better the specifications, designs, training, preventative maintenance, and replacement wear understanding of fleet management.

Applications for automatically transacting charitable donations triggered by location-based events and activities. The applications aggregate triggered donations and conduct a financial transaction when the aggregate amount meets or exceeds a pre-determined threshold. The applications also generate an audible notification to the user and others nearby when each donation is triggered.
