First Claim
1. A method for performing merging control of feeds on at least one social network, the method being applied to an electronic device, the method comprising the steps of:
- collecting all feeds of at least one account of a user of the electronic device on the at least one social network, the feeds generated during a predetermined time period, comparing the collected feeds to find related feeds corresponding to at least one same topic within the collected feeds, and merging the related feeds corresponding to the at least one same topic into at least one merged feed; and
listing the at least one merged feed and remaining feeds within the collected feeds, rather than listing all of the related feeds corresponding to the at least one same topic, to generate a feed list to be viewed by the user, wherein in the feed list, the at least one merged feed is ranked to be viewed by the user first.
