Information Sharing Page Switching via Follow Mode

Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Current information sharing methods require frequent and tedious operations to switch between pages, leading to inefficiencies and a poor user experience, especially when multiple pages are shared, due to the need for repeated 'exit and re-share' actions, which consume time and resources.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that allow seamless page switching by detecting a trigger operation on a link to jump to a second page and share it with the client in follow mode, eliminating the need for repeated 'exit and re-share' operations, thereby improving efficiency and user experience.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the sharer repeatedly triggers the operation of 'exiting from the shared page-sharing the next page' to switch between multiple pages, then the information sharing function is maintained, but the time consumption and operational complexity increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvepage switching operationVSAvoidtime for repeated exit and re-share operations

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by keeping the sharee's client in a follow mode state during page switching. The sharee's client automatically follows the sharer's current page without requiring explicit exit and re-share operations, thus preparing the system in advance for seamless page transitions.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The follow mode maintains continuous information sharing action between the sharer and sharee. When the sharer switches pages, the sharee's client continuously updates to display the current page without interruption, ensuring the useful action of information sharing continues without breaks or repeated operations.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #20Continuity of useful action

2Reliability

If the sharee's client displays pages by independently loading each page, then the display flexibility is maintained, but the synchronization with the sharer's display is lost

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedisplay synchronizationVSAvoiddisplay mode flexibility

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The sharee's client operates in feedback mode where it continuously receives updates from the sharer's client about the current page state. The sharee's display is synchronized by receiving real-time feedback from the sharer, ensuring both displays remain consistent while maintaining the ability to adapt to different sharing scenarios.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

An information switching and sharing method, a device, an electronic apparatus, and a storage medium are provided. The method is applied to a client of a sharee, and the method includes: receiving a first page shared by a client of a sharer, in a free browsing mode, wherein the shared first page comprises a link to a second page, and the free browsing mode is a mode in which a page is freely browsed by the client of the sharee; and jumping to the second page in response to a detection of a trigger operation on the link in the shared first page.
