Abstract

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide an interface that includes a plurality of panes. A determination can be made that a first pane is being accessed, the first pane for capturing and broadcasting live content through a social networking system. A live content stream can be captured upon accessing the first pane. Data corresponding to the live content stream can be provided to the social networking system for broadcasting.

Claims (40)

1 . A computer-implemented method comprising:

providing, by a computing device, an interface that includes a plurality of panes;

determining, by the computing device, that a first pane is being accessed, the first pane for capturing and broadcasting live content through a social networking system; and

capturing, by the computing device, a live content stream upon accessing the first pane; and

providing, by the computing device, data corresponding to the live content stream to the social networking system for broadcasting.

2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein:

the interface includes a second pane for accessing a content library; and

the interface includes a third pane for accessing other live content streams being broadcasted through the social networking system.

3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the live content stream ceases to be accessible through the social networking system once broadcasting ends.

4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein broadcasting of the live content stream is paused when the second pane or the third pane is accessed.

5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the first pane includes at least one of an option to capture one or more screenshot images of the live content stream or an option to capture one or more videos of the live content stream.

6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein captured screenshot images or captured videos of the live content stream are stored on the computing device.

7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein captured screenshot images or captured videos of the live content stream are stored in a content library accessible through a second pane.

8 . The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , wherein the second pane includes an option for sharing content stored in the content library through the social networking system.

9 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein feedback received for the live content stream from other viewing users of the social networking system is provided through the first pane.

10 . The computer-implemented method of claim 9 , wherein an avatar associated with a viewing user animates when the viewing user interacts with the live content stream.

11 . A system comprising:

at least one processor; and

a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to perform:

providing an interface that includes a plurality of panes;

determining that a first pane is being accessed, the first pane for capturing and broadcasting live content through a social networking system;

capturing a live content stream upon accessing the first pane; and

providing data corresponding to the live content stream to the social networking system for broadcasting.

12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein:

the interface includes a second pane for accessing a content library; and

the interface includes a third pane for accessing other live content streams being broadcasted through the social networking system.

13 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the live content stream ceases to be accessible through the social networking system once broadcasting ends.

14 . The system of claim 11 , wherein broadcasting of the live content stream is paused when the second pane or the third pane is accessed.

15 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the first pane includes at least one of an option to capture one or more screenshot images of the live content stream or an option to capture one or more videos of the live content stream.

16 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing system, cause the computing system to perform a method comprising:

providing an interface that includes a plurality of panes;

determining that a first pane is being accessed;

capturing a live content stream upon accessing the first pane, the first pane for capturing and broadcasting live content through a social networking system; and

providing data corresponding to the live content stream to the social networking system for broadcasting.

17 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein:

the interface includes a second pane for accessing a content library; and

the interface includes a third pane for accessing other live content streams being broadcasted through the social networking system.

18 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein the live content stream ceases to be accessible through the social networking system once broadcasting ends.

19 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein broadcasting of the live content stream is paused when the second pane or the third pane is accessed.

20 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein the first pane includes at least one of an option to capture one or more screenshot images of the live content stream or an option to capture one or more videos of the live content stream.
