System and method for sharing content based on positional tagging

1. A method of allowing a first user to share digital content, the method comprising:

(a) providing a first user with an interface to:

(1) tag digital content displayed on a first digital platform,

(2) select a second digital platform for sharing information, and

(3) comment on the tagged digital content;

(b) creating a database entry with share-data including:

(1) position data of a location where the tagged digital content is displayed on the first digital platform,

(2) identification of the first digital platform, and

(3) the comment of step (a)(3);

(c) creating a unique identifier that is keyed to the database entry of step (b);

(d) submitting the unique identifier of step (c) to be published on the second digital platform of step (a)(2), wherein the unique identifier is used to direct a second user, on the second digital platform, to the first digital platform;

(e) identifying when the second user has accessed the first digital platform displaying the tagged content via the unique identifier of step (c);

(f) using the unique identifier of step (c) to pull the share-data in the database entry of step (b); and

(g) using the position data of step (b)(1) to highlight the tagged digital content, on the first digital platform, for the second user.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein step (d) further includes submitting the comment of step (a)(3) to be published on the second digital platform of step (a)(2).

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein step (g) further includes using the position data of step (b)(1) to highlight the tagged digital content by publishing the comment of step (a)(3) proximate to the tagged digital content.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first digital platform is selected from a group consisting of: a website, a mobile application, a television application, a web-based application, and any equivalent thereof.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second digital platform is selected from a group consisting of: a website, a mobile application, a television application, a web-based application, and any equivalent thereof.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second digital platform is social networking service.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the unique identifier of step (c) is a Uniform Resource Locator (URL).

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein step (e) includes identifying a user-cookie given to the second user at the second digital platform.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein step (e) includes identifying a user-cookie given to the second user upon activation of the unique identifier of step (c).

10. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, comprising:

instructions executable by at least one processing device that, when executed, cause the processing device to

(a) provide a first user with an interface to:

(1) tag digital content displayed on a first digital platform,

(2) identify a second digital platform for sharing information, and

(3) comment on the digital content;

(b) create a database entry with share-data including:

(1) position data of a location where the tagged digital content is displayed on the first digital platform,

(2) identification of the first digital platform, and

(3) the comment;

(c) create a unique identifier that is keyed to the database entry;

(d) submit the unique identifier to be published on the second digital platform, wherein the unique identifier is used to direct a second user, on the second digital platform, to the first digital platform;

(e) identify when the second user has accessed the first digital platform displaying the tagged content via the unique identifier;

(f) use the unique identifier to pull the share-data in the database entry; and

(g) use the position data to highlight the tagged digital content, on the first digital platform, for the second user.

11. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , further comprising:

instructions executable by at least one processing device that, when executed, cause the processing device to submit the comment to be published on the second digital platform.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , further comprising:

instructions executable by at least one processing device that, when executed, cause the processing device to use the position data to highlight the tagged digital content by publishing the comment proximate to the tagged digital content on the first digital platform.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the first digital platform is selected from a group consisting of: a website, a mobile application, a television application, a web-based application, and any equivalent thereof.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the second digital platform is selected from a group consisting of: a website, a mobile application, a television application, a web-based application, and any equivalent thereof.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the second digital platform is social networking service.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the unique identifier is a Uniform Resource Locator (URL).

17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , further comprising:

instructions executable by at least one processing device that, when executed, cause the processing device to identify a user-cookie given to the second user at the second digital platform.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , further comprising:

instructions executable by at least one processing device that, when executed, cause the processing device to identify a user-cookie given to the second user upon activation of the unique identifier.
