1. A method comprising:
receiving via a communication network, at a first server from a first client app executing on a mobile client device, a first media link to media, a first user identifier, a first identifier associated with the first client app from the first client app, and an indication of a first media list where the first media link will be stored, wherein the first media list is associated with the first user identifier, wherein the first media list comprises a first plurality links to a first plurality of media, and wherein the first media link points directly to an image, music, or a video stored on a second server; receiving via a communication network, at the first server from the first client app executing on the mobile client device, a second media link to media, the first user identifier, the first identifier associated with the first client app from the first client app, and an indication of a second media list where the second media link will be stored, wherein the second media list is associated with the first user identifier, wherein the second media list comprises a second plurality links to a second plurality of media, and wherein the second media link points directly to an image, music, or a video stored on a second server; organizing in a database at the first server the first media link in the first media list where the first media link will be stored; organizing in the database at the first server the second media link in the second media list where the second media link will be stored; receiving, at the first server from a second client app executing on the mobile client device, the first user identifier and a second identifier associated with the second client app along with a request for one or more media lists associated with the first user identifier, wherein the second client app is a different app than the first client app, wherein the first client app and the second client app are executing on the same mobile client device, and wherein each of the one or more media lists associated with the user identifier include one or more media links; and sending, from the first server to the second client app executing on the mobile client device, the one or more media lists associated with the user identifier, wherein neither the first client app nor the second client app is a web browser. |
