Social balancer for indicating the relative priorities of linked objects
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- generating, in a computer memory, a network diagram representing a plurality of linked nodes, wherein the plurality of linked nodes represents at least one object, at least one person, and at least one file, and wherein, when two or more linked nodes within the plurality of linked nodes represent two or more people, a strength link between each linked node is determined by a plurality of interactions between the two or more people;
a processor receiving, for a displayed graphical user interface (GUI), an adjusted weight of a first linked node of the plurality of linked nodes associated with a social relations service, wherein the adjusted weight is determined by a plurality of adjustment options comprising a plurality of sliders that can be moved upward and downward, an increment button and a decrement button each associated with a priority value field, and an overwrite option to select and overwrite a priority value field, wherein a subset of sliders in the plurality of sliders are each associated with an individual connected to a user as a friend within a user profile on the social relations service, and wherein a slider in the plurality of sliders is a graphic equalizer that allows the user to link an adjustment for one frequency band in response to adjustments of another frequency band;
in response to receiving the adjusted weight, the processor automatically generating and applying a weight to a second linked node of the plurality of linked nodes based on a relationship between the second linked node and the first linked node;
the processor generating a prioritized list of first social media content according to the adjusted weight of the first linked node;
the processor, concurrently to generating the prioritized list of first social media content, generating a prioritized list of second social media content according to the adjusted weight of the second linked node; and
generating and displaying a GUI based on the prioritized list of first social media content and the prioritized list of second social media content.

Abstract
A method and system for indicating a priority of a first linked node and a second linked node within a plurality of linked nodes associated with an electronically interactive social relations service. The method may include assigning a weight to the first linked node within the plurality of linked nodes. The method may also include assigning a weight to the second linked node within the plurality of linked nodes. Additionally, the method may include determining an adjustment of the weight of the first linked node within the plurality of linked nodes. The method may further include adjusting the weight of the second linked node based on the determining of the adjustment of the weight of the first linked node, the adjusting of the weight of the second linked node corresponding to a link strength of the second link node relative to the first link node.
