1. A computer-implemented method for automatically pushing location-specific content to users, the method comprising:
- identifying, by one or more computing devices, a geographic location at which a plurality of users have viewed location-specific content on their client devices, the location-specific content viewed by each user corresponding to a user-captured image stored locally on the user'"'"'s client device, wherein identifying, by the one or more computing devices, the geographic location at which the plurality of users have viewed location-specific content on their client devices comprises identifying, by one or more computing devices, a first location within the geographic location at which the plurality of users have viewed location-specific content on their client devices;
comparing, by the one or more computing devices, the user-captured images viewed by two or more of the plurality of users using an image comparison algorithm to identify common image content contained within the user-captured images viewed by the two or more of the plurality of users, wherein the common image content comprises imagery that depicts a second location within the geographic location that is different from the first location;
identifying, by the one or more computing devices, the common image content as a common content item associated with the location-specific content viewed by the two or more of the plurality of users;
receiving, by the one or more computing devices, an indication that a first user is traveling to the geographic location;
in response to receiving the indication, automatically pushing, by the one or more computing devices, the common content item to a client device associated with the first user for storage by a memory of the client device without receiving a request for the common content item from the client device;
determining, by the one or more computing devices, that the first user has traveled to the geographic location and subsequently left the geographic location; and
in response to determining that the first user has left the geographic location, automatically deleting, by the one or more computing devices, the common content item from the memory of the client device.
