Abstract

A system and method for streamlining microblogging across a plurality of media channels are provided. The method includes receiving content to be published and a plurality of target media channels; obtaining requirements data comprising at least one requirement respective of each of the plurality of target media channels; for each of the plurality of target media channels determining if the content successfully meets the at least one requirement of the target media channel; generating a set of characterization attributes to optimize the content reach through the target media channel compiling a microblog and metadata respective of the set of characterization attributes for the target media channel; and sending the metadata and the microblog to the target media channel.

Claims

1. A method for streamlining microblogging across a plurality of media channels, comprising:

receiving content to be published and a plurality of target media channels;

obtaining requirements data comprising at least one requirement respective of each of the plurality of target media channels;

for each of the plurality of target media channels;

determining if the content successfully meets the at least one requirement of the target media channel;

generating a set of characterization attributes to optimize the content reach through the target media channel;

compiling a microblog and metadata respective of the set of characterization attributes for the target media channel; and

sending the metadata and the microblog to the target media channel.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein receiving content to be published further comprising:

receiving the plurality of media channels to publish the microblog on.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein each of the plurality of media channels includes any of:

a social media site, and a web site.

11. A system for providing a suitable web address to a user device, comprising:

a processing system; and

a memory communicatively connected to the processing system, the memory containing instructions that, when executed by the processing system, configure the system to;

receive content to be published and a plurality of target media channels;

obtain requirements data comprising at least one requirement respective of each of the plurality of target media channels;

for each of the plurality of target media channels;

determine if the content successfully meets the at least one requirement of the target media channel;

generate a set of characterization attributes to optimize the content reach through the target media channel;

compile a microblog and metadata respective of the set of characterization attributes for the target media channel; and

send the metadata and the microblog to the target media channel.
