Embodiment Construction

[0014] Computers and other devices are frequently used to perform actions such as initiating searches, collecting and organizing information, and sending and receiving messages. People type queries into search engines to request information. People use smartphones to take pictures, or upload pictures from a stand-alone camera to their computers. People use microphones to capture and transmit audio information. People send emails, post information to blogs or social networks, and post photos to photo-sharing sites. Often, these actions are considered conceptually separate. Many people view performing a search as an entirely separate action from posting to a social network or taking a photo or recording a sound. In some cases, these perspectives are reflected in or reinforced by the use of different devices to perform these actions. For example, a person might use his or her desktop computer to organize photo albums uploaded from individual cameras. That same person might u...

Abstract

Content may be collected, annotated, and propagated in a unified process. In one example, a mobile device such as a smart phone is used to collect information. The information may be text, video, audio, etc. The information may be sent to a reaction service, which may return an annotation of the information. The annotation may be attached to the information to create an annotated document. The annotated document may be communicated to other users. Additionally, the annotated document may be stored in a way that associated the annotated document with the user who created or captured the information. The ability to capture information, obtain annotations to the information, and propagate the annotated information may facilitate the creation of social media, such as social network postings or online photo albums.

Description

Background technique [0001] Computers, smartphones, and other types of devices are used to perform various types of actions. Some of these actions include initiating searches, collecting and organizing information, and sending and receiving messages. Furthermore, many devices are multifunction devices, for example, a smartphone can be used as a voice and data communication device and as a camera. The increasing number of functions that can be performed on one device and the increasing availability of connectivity to these devices allow people to use one device to perform many different functions. For example, in the past, posting a photo to a social network involved taking the photo with a camera and then uploading the photo to the social network using a computer. Now, a person can take a photo on a smart phone and then post the photo from the phone to their social networking account. [0002] While people often perform a series of actions that are related to each other (fo...
