First Claim
1. A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-readable program code embodied therein to be executed by one or more processors, the program code including instructions to:
- search, based on a user specified search, a business directory in a database system to determine at least one contact name;
identify network feeds associated with the at least one contact name determined by the search of the business directory in the database system, wherein identifying one of the network feeds associated with the at least one contact name is based on an identifier associated with the at least one contact name by the business directory and associated with the one of the network feeds, wherein the identifier is different than the at least one contact name;
output the network feeds;
filter, based on a user specified filter, the network feeds to determine filtered network feeds; and

Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for viewing a contact network feed in a business directory environment. A system searches, based on a user specified search, a business directory to determine contacts, identifies network feeds associated with the contacts, and outputs the network feeds. For example, the system outputs network feeds from data center managers identified by the business directory. The system filters, based on a user specified filter, the network feeds to determine filtered network feeds, and outputs the filtered network feeds to a display device. For example, the system outputs the network feeds from data center managers that mention a specific product. The system can enable communication with a contact using contact information from the business directory. The system can subscribe a user to the network feed of a contact, wherein the user receives updates for the network feed of the contact via a feed to a display device.
