Device, System, and Method of Creating Virtual Social Networks Based On Web-Extracted Features
First Claim
1. A method for creating virtual social networks based on web-extracted data, the method comprising:
- accessing through a global communication network a first content item and a second content item, wherein each one of the first and second content items is selected from the group consisting of;
an image, a video, text, and metadata;
extracting data corresponding to a first feature from the first content item;
extracting data corresponding to a second feature from the second content item; and
based on a common attribute of the first and second features, clustering into a cluster a first identifier of a first user associated with the first content item and a second identifier of a second user associated with the second content item.

Abstract
Device, system, and method of creating virtual social networks based on web-extracted features. For example, a method for creating virtual social networks based on web-extracted data includes: accessing through a global communication network a first content item and a second content item, wherein each one of the first and second content items is selected from the group consisting of: an image, a video, text, and metadata; extracting data corresponding to a first feature from the first content item; extracting data corresponding to a second feature from the second content item; and based on a common attribute of the first and second features, clustering into a cluster a first identifier of a first user associated with the first content item and a second identifier of a second user associated with the second content item.
