Facilitating access to content from group interactions
View Patent ↗The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates access to content. During operation, the system detects uploading of the content within a group interaction among a set of users. Next, the system aggregates the content into a centralized location. Finally, the system enables access to the content at the centralized location by one or more of the users.
1. A method comprising:
detecting uploading of content during a group interaction among a set of users;
in response to detecting the uploading of the content, automatically determining a first group of users based on the group interaction;
in response to determining the first group of users, automatically transferring, aggregating and storing the content of the group interaction into a centralized location;
enabling access to the content at the centralized location by one or more of the users in the first group of users; and
sharing the content at the centralized location with other users associated with the one or more of the users based on one or more criteria.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more criteria includes one or more preferences associated with the set of users and the other users.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the one or more criteria includes filtering the content based on the one or more preferences with respect to a source of the content.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the one or more criteria includes filtering the content based on the one or more preferences with respect to a type of the content.
5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the one or more criteria includes filtering the content based on the one or more preferences with respect to a group interaction.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more criteria includes a relationship of the other users with the one or more of the users.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more criteria includes a set of permissions associated with the set of users and the other users.
8. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
a non-transitory computer-readable medium including one or more sequences of instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, causes:
detecting uploading of content during a group interaction among a set of users;
in response to detecting the uploading of the content, automatically determining a first group of users based on the group interaction;
in response to determining the first group of users, automatically transferring, aggregating and storing the content of the group interaction into a centralized location;
enabling access to the content at the centralized location by one or more of the users in the first group of users; and
sharing the content at the centralized location with other users associated with the one or more of the users based on one or more criteria.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more criteria includes one or more preferences associated with the set of users and the other users.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the one or more criteria includes filtering the content based on the one or more preferences with respect to a source of the content.
11. The system of claim 9 , wherein the one or more criteria includes filtering the content based on the one or more preferences with respect to a type of the content.
12. The system of claim 9 , wherein the one or more criteria includes filtering the content based on the one or more preferences with respect to a group interaction.
13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more criteria includes a relationship of the other users with the one or more of the users.
14. The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more criteria includes a set of permissions associated with the set of users and the other users.
15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium including one or more sequences of instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, causes:
detecting uploading of content during a group interaction among a set of users;
in response to detecting the uploading of the content, automatically determining a first group of users based on the group interaction;
in response to determining the first group of users, automatically transferring, aggregating and storing the content of the group interaction into a centralized location;
enabling access to the content at the centralized location by one or more of the users in the first group of users; and
sharing the content at the centralized location with other users associated with the one or more of the users based on one or more criteria.
16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the one or more criteria includes one or more preferences associated with the set of users and the other users.
17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the one or more criteria includes filtering the content based on the one or more preferences with respect to a source of the content.
18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the one or more criteria includes filtering the content based on the one or more preferences with respect to a type of the content.
19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the one or more criteria includes filtering the content based on the one or more preferences with respect to a group interaction.
20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the one or more criteria includes a relationship of the other users with the one or more of the users.
21. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the one or more criteria includes a set of permissions associated with the set of users and the other users.
