CURATING MEDIA FROM SOCIAL CONNECTIONS

摘要

Media files may be curated for a user based on a location of a client device associated with the user. A user carrying a client device may arrive at a particular location on a given day. A computer-implemented process may include determining whether the given day and/or the particular location is “unique” to the user in some fashion, which may be based on one or more criteria used to quantify or otherwise evaluate uniqueness of the day or location. At least partly in response, media file sharing service may be queried to identify shared media files that were created at the particular location, wherein the shared media files are associated with one or more entities having social connections to the user. A curated subset of the identified media files may be automatically created and a notification may be issued to the user.

determining:
a current time; anda location of a client device associated with a user; determining that at least one of the current time or the location satisfies a criterion used to indicate instances in which the current time or the location is unique to the user; and at least partly in response to the determining that the at least one of the current time or the location satisfies the criterion:
querying a media file sharing service to identify shared media files that were created at the location, the shared media files being associated with one or more entities having social connections to the user;curating a subset of the shared media files; andserving a notification of the subset.
