Animated Tags

摘要

A platform allows experts, for example home improvement professionals, to upload their portfolios, i.e. content such as photos, videos, text, and sound, to a publicly available resource, such as a Web browser accessible, network based commerce system. Users may then browse the content, for example by room, style, and metro area. The content is arranged in collections that are in part passively sorted, based upon user relevance. Tags are shown on objects, for example within photos, for which there is more information. In the case of a movable display device, the tags can simulate the physics of real tags, for example they can move back and forth when the device is shaken. In another embodiment, a snap point is set to impart either a scrolling transition or a step transition between display pages, based upon user scroll activity.

主权项

1. An apparatus, comprising:
a processor configured for browser accessible presentation of content; said processor configured to overlay tags on objects shown in individual photos within said content; said processor configured to receive user interaction relative to a tagged photo that is presented to a user comprising intentional user manipulation relative to a display device on which said user views said tagged photo said processor configured for animating said tags responsively by simulating the physics of real tags when the device is reoriented by swinging the tags around a rotation point using either a true gravity vector derived from device-related sensors or an apparent gravity direction derived from image orientation.
