Abstract

A method of obtaining media content of an event, comprising: identifying a real-life event and, a time of said real-life event a geographic location of the real-life event; identifying a subset of a plurality of client terminals of users located in proximity to the geographic location of the real-life event at said time of said real-life event; sending a message to the subset of client terminals containing a request to acquire media content documenting the real-life event; and receiving at least one media content item documenting the real-life event from at least one client terminal of the subset of client terminals, the at least one media content item acquired by at least one user of the users using the at least one client terminal in response to the message.

Claims (39)

1. A method of obtaining media content of an event, comprising:

identifying a subset of a plurality of client terminals of a plurality of users, client terminals of the subset being identified based on one or more users of the client terminals requesting media content documenting a real-life event in a geographic location;

sending a message to each client terminal of the subset of client terminals, the message containing a request, to present on a respective display of the client terminal, to acquire media content documenting the real-life event in the geographic location, the request comprising instructions for imaging the real-life event;

receiving, from a first client terminal of the subset, a media content item in response to the message, the media content item being acquired by the first client terminal and the media content item documenting the real-life event; and

crediting a first user associated with the first client terminal for the media content item based on a second user, associated with a second client terminal, at least one of viewing the media content item or sharing the media content item with another user.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

distributing, to a third client terminal associated with a third user, the media content item based on a credit associated with the third user for a requested media content item provided by the third user, the credit being based on at least one of views or shares of the requested media content item by another user.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the distributing the media content item to the third client terminal while the media content item is being received from the first client terminal.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the distributing occurring at a frequency determined based on at least one of a time and the geographic location of the real-life event.

5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the distributing comprises:

providing the media content item to the third client terminal, the providing comprising sending a message with a reference to a network-accessible content file containing the media content item.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the media content item is received by a message with a reference to a network-accessible content file containing the media content item.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the media content item is aggregated with other media content items.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the geographic location of the real-life event is identified using a search action that comprises searching at least one events source that is external to the plurality of client terminals.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the geographic location of the real-life event is manually provided by a user entering event details into an event dataset.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying the subset of client terminals comprises accessing at least one calendar stored in a memory of at least one of the plurality of client terminals.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying comprises ranking of the subset of client terminals according to past media content items received from each of the subset of client terminals.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the instructions comprise at least one text instruction to arrive at the geographic location, and coordinates of the geographic location of the real-life event to be included in a map that indicates the geographic location, and wherein the at least one text instruction and the map are presented on a screen of each of the subset of client terminals.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the map comprises multiple identified geographic locations of real-life events.

14. A system of obtaining media content of an event, comprising:

at least one network interface;

a memory storing a code; and

a processor coupled to the memory and the at least one network interface for executing the code, the code causing the processor to perform operations comprising:

identifying a subset of a plurality of client terminals of a plurality of users, client terminals of the subset being identified based on one or more users of the client terminals requesting media content documenting a real-life event in a geographic location;

sending a message to each client terminal of the subset of client terminals, the message containing a request, to present on a respective display of the client terminal, to acquire media content documenting the real-life event in the geographic location, the request comprising instructions for imaging the real-life event;

receiving, from a first client terminal of the subset, a media content item in response to the message, the media content item being acquired by the first client terminal and the media content item documenting the real-life event; and

crediting a first user associated with the first client terminal for the media content item based on a second user, associated with a second client terminal, at least one of viewing the media content item or sharing the media content item with another user.

15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the operations further comprise:

distributing, to a third client terminal associated with a third user, the media content item based on a credit associated with the third user for a requested media content item provided by the third user, the credit being based on at least one of views or shares of the requested media content item by another user.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the distributing the media content item to the third client terminal while the media content item is being received from the first client terminal.

17. The system of claim 15 , wherein the distributing occurring at a frequency determined based on at least one of a time and the geographic location of the real-life event.

18. The system of claim 15 , wherein the distributing comprises:

providing the media content item to the third client terminal, the providing comprising sending a message with a reference to a network-accessible content file containing the media content item.

19. The system of claim 14 , wherein the identifying the subset of client terminals comprises accessing at least one calendar stored in a memory of at least one of the plurality of client terminals.

20. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer executable instructions adapted to perform operations comprising:

identifying a subset of a plurality of client terminals of a plurality of users, client terminals of the subset being identified based on one or more users of the client terminals requesting media content documenting a real-life event in a geographic location;

sending a message to each client terminal of the subset of client terminals, the message containing a request, to present on a respective display of the client terminal, to acquire media content documenting the real-life event in the geographic location, the request comprising instructions for imaging the real-life event;

receiving, from a first client terminal of the subset, a media content item in response to the message, the media content item being acquired by the first client terminal and the media content item documenting the real-life event; and

crediting a first user associated with the first client terminal for the media content item based on a second user, associated with a second client terminal, at least one of viewing the media content item or sharing the media content item with another user.
