Abstract

A method and a system include receiving indication of a user interaction within a pre-determined time period, determining that the user interaction is a contextual triggering event based on a plurality of triggering conditions, identifying a media content item associated with the contextual triggering event, generating a first user interface including a user-selectable element representing a content transmission proposal, in response to detecting a user selection of the user-selectable element, generating a second user interface, the second user interface including the media content item and a plurality of user-selectable entity icons.

Claims (50)

1. A system comprising:

one or more processors; and

a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

detecting a contextual triggering event that has occurred within a predetermined time period, the contextual triggering event associated with a first media content item;

identifying a media type of the first media content item and one or more historic media content items associated with the media type;

determining a frequency of user interactions with past content transmission proposals corresponding to the one or more historic media content items;

based on the frequency of user interaction with the past content transmission proposals, generating a user-selectable element on a first user interface of a device, the user-selectable element representing a present content transmission proposal corresponding to the first media content item; and

in response to detecting a selection of the user-selectable element, generating a second user interface including the first media content item.

2. The system of claim 1 , the one or more processors further perform operations comprising:

upon determining that the frequency of user interaction with the past content transmission proposals is above a threshold value, generating the user-selectable element representing the present content transmission proposal on the first user interface of the device.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the media type corresponds to one of a type of hyperlink data, image data, video data or audio data.

4. The system of claim 1 , the one or more processors further perform operations comprising:

determining that the media type of the first media content item matches a user-selected media type for contextual detection; and

based on the matching, generating the user-selectable element representing the present content transmission proposal on the first user interface of the device.

5. The system of claim 4 , the one or more processors further perform operations comprising:

identifying a user profile associated with the device; and

accessing user preference data associated with the user profile, the user preference data including an indication of the user-selected media type for contextual detection.

6. The system of claim 1 , the one or more processors further perform operations comprising:

in response to detecting the selection of the user-selectable element, generating the second user interface including a plurality of user-selectable entity icons, and an avatar of the first media content item.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first media content item is a hyperlink, and wherein the user-selectable element representing the present content transmission proposal is a hyperlink icon, a logo of a web service provider of the hyperlink, or a text indicator.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first media content item is a song, and wherein the user-selectable element representing the present content transmission proposal is a music icon, a logo of a media service provider of the song, or a text indicator.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more historic media content items is identified based on content transmission history data.

10. A method comprising:

detecting a contextual triggering event that has occurred within a predetermined time period, the contextual triggering event associated with a first media content item;

identifying a media type of the first media content item and one or more historic media content items associated with the media type;

determining a frequency of user interactions with past content transmission proposals corresponding to the one or more historic media content items;

based on the frequency of user interaction with the past content transmission proposals, generating a user-selectable element on a first user interface of a device, the user-selectable element representing a present content transmission proposal corresponding to the first media content item; and

in response to detecting a selection of the user-selectable element, generating a second user interface including the first media content item.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

upon determining that the frequency of user interaction with the past content transmission proposals is above a threshold value, generating the user-selectable element representing the present content transmission proposal on the first user interface of the device.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the media type corresponds to one of a type of hyperlink data, image data, video data or audio data.

13. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

determining that the media type of the first media content item matches a user-selected media type for contextual detection; and

based on the matching, generating the user-selectable element representing the present content transmission proposal on the first user interface of the device.

14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising:

identifying a user profile associated with the device; and

accessing user preference data associated with the user profile, the user preference data including an indication of the user-selected media type for contextual detection.

15. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

in response to detecting the selection of the user-selectable element, generating the second user interface including a plurality of user-selectable entity icons, and an avatar of the first media content item.

16. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first media content item is a hyperlink, and wherein the user-selectable element representing the present content transmission proposal is a hyperlink icon, a logo of a web service provider of the hyperlink, or a text indicator.

17. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first media content item is a song, and wherein the user-selectable element representing the present content transmission proposal is a music icon, a logo of a media service provider of the song, or a text indicator.

18. The method of claim 10 , wherein the one or more historic media content items is identified based on content transmission history data.

19. A machine-readable non-transitory storage medium having instruction data executable by a machine to cause the machine to perform operations comprising:

detecting a contextual triggering event that has occurred within a predetermined time period, the contextual triggering event associated with a first media content item;

identifying a media type of the first media content item and one or more historic media content items associated with the media type;

determining a frequency of user interactions with past content transmission proposals corresponding to the one or more historic media content items;

based on the frequency of user interaction with the past content transmission proposals, generating a user-selectable element on a first user interface of a device, the user-selectable element representing a present content transmission proposal corresponding to the first media content item; and

in response to detecting a selection of the user-selectable element, generating a second user interface including the first media content item.

20. The machine-readable non-transitory storage medium of claim 19 , having instruction data executable by the machine to cause the machine to perform operations further comprising:

upon determining that the frequency of user interaction with the past content transmission proposals is above a threshold value, generating the user-selectable element representing the present content transmission proposal on the first user interface of the device.
