Abstract

A system and method for dynamically designing shared content served via a content sharing source. The system includes a content size determination unit to determine a size of content sourced from the content sharing source; a shared content size allocation unit to determine a size of the shared content based on the size of the content; a shared content rules database to determine a design style associated with the shared content based on the determined size of the shared content; and a shared content transmitting unit to communicate the shared content in accordance with the design style to the content sharing source.

Claims (30)

1. A system for dynamically designing shared content served via a content sharing source, comprising:

a data store comprising a computer readable medium storing a program of instructions for dynamic designing of the shared content;

a processor that executes the program of instructions;

a content size determination unit to determine a size of a first content sourced from the content sharing source;

a shared content size allocation unit to determine a size of the shared content based on the size of the first content;

a shared content rules database to determine a design style associated with the shared content based on the determined size of the shared content; and

a shared content transmitting unit to communicate the shared content in accordance with the design style to the content sharing source.

2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the shared content size allocation unit determines the size of the shared content in response to the first content being resized.

3. The system according to claim 2 , wherein the first content is resized in response to an operation by a visitor to the content sharing source.

4. The system according to claim 2 , wherein the first content is resized in response to a parameter associated with the first content being different from previously viewed first content.

5. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the design style is a combination of a plurality of different types of elements.

6. The system according to claim 5 , wherein the plurality of the different types of elements comprise an image, a video, a headline, and a text description.

7. A method implemented on a processor for dynamically designing shared content served via a content sharing source, comprising:

determining, using the processor, a size of a first content sourced from the content sharing source;

determining, using the processor, a size of the shared content based on the size of the first content;

determining, using the processor, a design style associated with the shared content based on the determined size of the shared content; and

communicating, using the processor, the shared content in accordance with the design style to the content sharing source.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the first content is resized in response to an operation by a visitor to the content sharing source.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the first content is resized in response to a parameter associated with the first content being different from previously viewed first content.

10. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the design style is a combination of a plurality of different types of elements.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the plurality of the different types of elements comprise an image, a video, a headline, and a text description.

12. A method implemented on a processor for dynamically designing shared content served via a content sharing source, comprising:

detecting, using the processor, a change in a size of a first content sourced from the content sharing source;

determining, using the processor, a size of the shared content based on the size of the first content;

determining, using the processor, a design style associated with the shared content based on the determined size of the shared content; and

communicating, using the processor, the shared content in accordance with the design style to the content sharing source.

13. The method according to claim 12 , wherein the first content is resized in response to an operation by a visitor to the content sharing source.

14. The method according to claim 12 , wherein the first content is resized in response to a parameter associated with the first content being different from previously viewed first content.

15. The method according to claim 12 , wherein the design style is a combination of a plurality of different types of elements.

16. The method according to claim 15 , wherein the plurality of the different types of elements comprise an image, a video, a headline, and a text description.
