METRICS-BASED ACCESSING OF SOCIAL THREADS
First Claim
1. A method of accessing feeds based on metrics, the method comprising:
- accessing a plurality of feeds, wherein each feed in the plurality of feeds is associated with an object stored in a database system;
providing the plurality of feeds to a plurality of users of the database system;
collecting inferential user interaction data from the plurality of users, wherein the inferential user interaction data is generated in relation to at least one of the plurality of feeds, and wherein the inferential user interaction data captures implicit user behavior of at least one of the plurality of users of the database system;
determining, using one or more processors associated with the one or more servers, one or more feed metrics based on the user interaction data, wherein a feed metric is based upon statistics comprising user consumption, user responsiveness, content proliferation, and feed life;
weighting the one or more feed metrics; and
executing an action in relation to the at least one of the plurality of feeds based on the one or more weighted feed metrics, wherein the action comprises discontinuing the feed, characterizing a feed, determining that a feed can be monetized, determining that a feed should be cached, or determining that intervention in a feed is advisable.

Abstract
A method of accessing feeds based on metrics is provided. Feeds, each associated with an object stored in a database system, are provided to users of the database system. Inferential user interaction data captures implicit user behavior of users of the database system, wherein the data is generated in relation to a feed. Feed metrics are determined based on the user interaction data, wherein a feed metric is based upon statistics comprising user consumption, user responsiveness, content proliferation, and feed life. Finally, an action is executed in relation to at least one feed based on the feed metrics, wherein the action comprises discontinuing the feed, characterizing a feed, determining that a feed can be monetized, determining that a feed should be cached, or determining that intervention in a feed is advisable.

17. A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a plurality of instructions for accessing feeds based on metrics, the instructions comprising:
-
program code to collect inferential user interaction data generated in relation to a feed, wherein the feed is associated with an object stored in a database system, and wherein the inferential user interaction data captures implicit user behavior of at least one user of a plurality of users of the database system; program code to determine, using one or more processors associated with one or more servers, one or more feed metrics based on the user interaction data; and program code to execute an action in relation to the feed, wherein the action is executed based on the one or more feed metrics. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)

20. A system for accessing feeds based on metrics, the system comprising
a database storing a plurality of objects, wherein the database is running on one or more servers; - and
one or more processors associated with the one or more servers, wherein the one or more processors are configured to perform the following operations; collect inferential user interaction data generated in relation to a feed, wherein the feed is associated with an object stored in the database, and wherein the inferential user interaction data captures implicit user behavior of at least one user of a plurality of users of the database system; determine one or more feed metrics based on the user interaction data; and execute an action in relation to the feed, wherein the action is executed based on the one or more feed metrics. - View Dependent Claims (21)
