A computing device is programmed to receive data collected from communications of a user. The computer identifies portions of the collected data including a keyword selected from a list of media content elements or lists of keywords associated with each of the media content elements. The computer associates each portion with a media content element. The computer further determines a score for each media content element based on at least one of the number of references, words included in the portion of collected referring to the media content element, and the voice quality of the portion of collected data referring to the media content element. Based on the scores, the computer assigns media content elements to the user. The computer recommends media content items to the user based at least in part on the media content elements assigned to the user.

A method of sharing an experience between a tapper and a content provider is provided. In this method, at least two interfaces are provided that are configured to allow the tapper and the content provider to join a content sharing community. A third interface is also provided to allow the tapper to select the content provider from a map where at least one of the tapper and the content provider are unknown to the other prior to the tapper selecting the content provider. Then a solicitation is conveyed from the tapper to the content provider to provide a video feed. In response to the solicitation, a video feed derived from a device operated or carried by the content provider is provided to the tapper. From a video feed, an object is recognized, and the video feed is conveyed to the tapper according to the privacy policy derived from the object.

Contextual parameters of digital media content may be obtained. The digital media content may be associated with a content capture user and/or an end user. Editing parameters having values defining one or more editing attributes, including one or more selected moments of interest, of an edited version of the digital media content may be received. Individual post-capture user profiles may include expertise attributes associated with individual post-capture users. A set of post-capture users may be identified as potential matches for creating the edited version of the digital media content based upon one or more of values of contextual parameters, editing parameters, one or more expertise attributes of the post-capture user profiles, and/or other information. The set of post-capture users may be presented to the content capture user and/or the end user for selection of one of the post-capture users to create the edited version of the digital media content.

An online system is configured to recommend a live video to a target user by presenting the live video in the target user's newsfeed or other location. The online system receives a plurality of live videos for streaming to its users. To recommend a live video, the online system dynamically identifies a topic of each of the plurality of live videos during the streaming. The online system further selects a group of candidate live videos, each of which has an identified topic matching an interest of the target user. The online system ranks the candidates based on a probability that the target user would positively interact with each candidate live video if the candidate live video is presented to the target user. Then the online system provides a candidate above a threshold level in the ranking for display to the target user, e.g., in a newsfeed of the target user.

The disclosure provides a method, a server, a terminal, and a storage medium for displaying information. The method includes: obtaining user behavior data of a current user account; determining social information and a display timing of the social information in response to the user behavior data conforming to a display condition, the social information at least comprising a social portal for establishing a social relationship with a target user account, or prompt information of the social portal; and displaying the social information in response to conforming to the display timing.

Examples described herein involve switching between two user accounts of a streaming media service. In an example implementation, a playback device stores data representing credentials for multiple user accounts including a first user account of a first streaming audio service and a second user account of the first streaming audio service. The playback device receives instructions to play first audio content from the first streaming audio service and plays back the first audio content by streaming data representing the first audio content from one or more servers of the first streaming audio service using credentials of the first user account. The playback device detects a trigger associated with the first user account of the first streaming audio service and switches from streaming data representing the first audio content using credentials of the first user account to streaming data representing the first audio content using credentials of the second user account.

Techniques associated with data management and distribution are described, including receiving at a content distribution and management system activity data associated with a user from a client, the client having an interface configured to display commercial content and a player configured to access the content distribution and management system, storing the activity data in a database, displaying the commercial content using the interface, receiving other activity data associated with the user from the client, storing the other activity data in the database, determining other commercial content to display using the activity data and the other activity data, and displaying the other commercial content.

A content distribution facilitation system is described comprising configured servers and a network interface configured to interface with a plurality of terminals in a client server relationship and optionally with a cloud-based storage system. A request from a first source for content comprising content criteria is received, the content criteria comprising content subject matter. At least a portion of the content request content criteria is transmitted to a selected content contributor. If recorded content is received from the first content contributor, the first source is provided with access to the received recorded content. The recorded content may be transmitted via one or more networks to one or more destination devices. Optionally, a voice analysis and/or facial recognition engine are utilized to determine if the recorded content is from the first content contributor.

A method for automatically providing key moments in a multimedia content on an electronic device and an electronic device therefor are provided. The method includes determining a navigation behavior of each user of the multimedia content during playback, determining a plurality of key moments in the multimedia content based on the navigational behavior, the plurality of key moments including a positive key moment, a negative key moment, and a neutral key moment, storing the plurality of key moments, detecting a playback event of the multimedia content by a candidate user, retrieving at least one key moment from the plurality of key moments in the multimedia content based on the candidate user, and displaying an actionable user interface including the at least one key moment.

A system and method to aggregate subscriber-perspective data from live data packets of network traffic. The method includes inspecting live packets of network traffic exchanged with a plurality of subscriber end devices. Network traffic exchanged with a subscriber end device can include network traffic exchanged with a different subscriber end device or with an application server. The packet inspection is performed at a location of interception of the live packets, each subscriber end device being an end device correlated with a subscriber. The method further includes selecting, at the location, content data of the inspected packets that correspond to packets exchanged with a selected subscriber end device of the plurality of subscriber end devices, aggregating, at the location, the content data selected, wherein the content data has not been previously aggregated, and outputting, at the location, results of the aggregation.
