Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure may be utilized to analyze a content item comprising text to identify: a quote, a named entity that is the source of the quote (e.g., a person or organization such as a company), and identification information for the named entity (such as a title of the person giving the quote). Quotes may also be ranked to determine, for example, the best quotes to include in an article.

Claims (35)

1 - 20 . (canceled)

21 . A method comprising:

building, by a processor, a content digest based on one or more received content items, the content digest comprising a list of tasks;

generating, by the processor, a content digest interface based on the content digest, the content digest interface comprising a user interface element for each task in the list of tasks, the user interface element including a title of a respective content item, a summary of the content item, and one or more selectable icons associated with a respective task;

monitoring, by the processor, user interactions with the list of tasks; and

providing, by the processor, bonus content to a user upon determining that the user has completed a task in the list of tasks.

22 . The method of claim 21 , the generating the content digest interface further comprising generating a cover page for the content digest interface.

23 . The method of claim 22 , the generating the cover page comprising generating a cover page image and one or more keywords associated with the content items.

24 . The method of claim 21 , the generating the content digest interface further comprising generating a task completion screen, the task completion screen displaying feedback representing a user's progress in completing one or more tasks in the list of tasks.

25 . The method of claim 24 , the monitoring user interactions comprising monitoring when a user selects a task in the list of tasks and updating the user's progress based on the selection of the task.

26 . The method of claim 21 , the generating the content digest interface further comprising generating a timer that indicates a time until a future content digest interface will be generated.

27 . The method of claim 21 , the selectable icons comprising a plurality of icons representing differing formats of a content item associated with a given task, the selection of an icon in the selectable icons displaying the respective content item in a corresponding format.

28 . A non-transitory computer readable storage medium for tangibly storing computer program instructions capable of being executed by a computer processor, the computer program instructions defining the steps of:

building a content digest based on one or more received content items, the content digest comprising a list of tasks;

generating a content digest interface based on the content digest, the content digest interface comprising a user interface element for each task in the list of tasks, the user interface element including a title of a respective content item, a summary of the content item, and one or more selectable icons associated with a respective task;

monitoring user interactions with the list of tasks; and

providing bonus content to a user upon determining that the user has completed a task in the list of tasks.

29 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 28 , the generating the content digest interface further comprising generating a cover page for the content digest interface.

30 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 29 , the generating the cover page comprising generating a cover page image and one or more keywords associated with the content items.

31 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 28 , the generating the content digest interface further comprising generating a task completion screen, the task completion screen displaying feedback representing a user's progress in completing one or more tasks in the list of tasks.

32 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 31 , the monitoring user interactions comprising monitoring when a user selects a task in the list of tasks and updating the user's progress based on the selection of the task.

33 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 28 , the generating the content digest interface further comprising generating a timer that indicates a time until a future content digest interface will be generated.

34 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 28 , the selectable icons comprising a plurality of icons representing differing formats of a content item associated with a given task, the selection of an icon in the selectable icons displaying the respective content item in a corresponding format.

35 . An apparatus comprising:

a processor;

a storage medium for tangibly storing thereon program logic for execution by the processor, the stored program logic comprising:

logic, executed by the processor, for building a content digest based on one or more received content items, the content digest comprising a list of tasks,

logic, executed by the processor, for generating a content digest interface based on the content digest, the content digest interface comprising a user interface element for each task in the list of tasks, the user interface element including a title of a respective content item, a summary of the content item, and one or more selectable icons associated with a respective task,

logic, executed by the processor, for monitoring user interactions with the list of tasks, and

logic, executed by the processor, for providing bonus content to a user upon determining that the user has completed a task in the list of tasks.

36 . The apparatus of claim 35 , the logic for generating the content digest interface further comprising logic, executed by the processor, for generating a cover page for the content digest interface, cover page comprising an image and one or more keywords associated with the content items.

37 . The apparatus of claim 35 , the logic for generating the content digest interface further comprising logic for generating a task completion screen, the task completion screen displaying feedback representing a user's progress in completing one or more tasks in the list of tasks.

38 . The apparatus of claim 37 , the logic for monitoring user interactions comprising logic, executed by the processor, for monitoring when a user selects a task in the list of tasks and updating the user's progress based on the selection of the task.

39 . The apparatus of claim 35 , the logic for generating the content digest interface further comprising logic, executed by the processor, for generating a timer that indicates a time until a future content digest interface will be generated.

40 . The apparatus of claim 35 , the selectable icons comprising a plurality of icons representing differing formats of a content item associated with a given task, the selection of an icon in the selectable icons displaying the respective content item in a corresponding format.
