Abstract

A system, computer program, and method for aggregating and filtering different types of content from multiple social media networks. The executed computer program may display a first set of user selectable items and a second set of user selectable items on a display screen of a hand-held communication device. Items in the first set may each correspond to one of the social media networks and items in the second set may each correspond to a type of content from the social media networks. The hand-held communication device may receive a selection from a user of any combination of the user selectable items of the first set and the second set for aggregation and filtering purposes. Then the hand-held communication device may display content from the social media networks, filtered according to the received selections.

Claims

1. A non-transitory computer readable memory device having a computer program stored thereon for operating functions of a handheld communication device having a display screen, the computer program comprising:

a code segment for presenting on the display screen a first set of user selectable items each corresponding to one of a plurality of social media networks;

a code segment for presenting on the display screen a second set of user selectable items each corresponding to one of a plurality of different types of content from the social media networks;

a code segment for receiving a selection of at least one of the user selectable items of the first set and a selection of at least one of the user selectable items of the second set from a user of the communication device; and

a code segment for presenting, on the display screen, content from the plurality of social media networks, wherein the content displayed on the display screen only includes the types of content selected by the user from the social media networks selected by the user.

2. The computer program of claim 1, wherein the code segments present the user selectable items of the first set and the second set on a single user interface screen.

3. The computer program of claim 1, wherein the plurality of social media networks is selected from the group consisting of social media websites, social media apps, and social media channels.

4. The computer program of claim 1, wherein the plurality of different types of content from the social media networks is selected from the group consisting of photos, videos, and text.

5. The computer program of claim 1, wherein the second set of user selectable items corresponds to at least two different types of content.

6. The computer program of claim 1, wherein the second set of user selectable items corresponds to at least three different types of content.

7. The computer program of claim 1, wherein the first set of user selectable items corresponds to at least two different social media networks.

8. The computer program of claim 1, wherein the first set of user selectable items corresponds to at least three different social media networks.

9. The computer program of claim 1, wherein the content displayed on the display screen, of the types selected and from the social media networks selected by the user, are displayed in order of at least one of:

time of posting, date of posting, and popularity, regardless with which of the social media networks the content is associated.

10. A non-transitory computer readable memory device having a computer program stored thereon for operating functions of a handheld communication device having a display screen, the computer program comprising:

a code segment for presenting on the display screen a first set of user selectable items each corresponding to one of three or more social media networks;

a code segment for presenting on the display screen a second set of user selectable items each corresponding to one of three or more different types of content from the social media networks, wherein the plurality of different types of content includes at least two of;

photos, videos, and text, wherein the user selectable items of the first set and the second set are presented in a grid on a single user interface screen;

a code segment for receiving a selection of at least two of the user selectable items of the first set and a selection of at least one of the user selectable items of the second set from a user of the communication device; and

a code segment for presenting, on the display screen, content from the plurality of social media networks, wherein the content displayed on the display screen only includes the types of content selected by the user from the social media networks selected by the user.

11. The computer program of claim 10, wherein the code segment for receiving the selection includes receiving at least two of the user selectable items of the second set from the user of the communication device.

12. The computer program of claim 10, wherein the plurality of social media networks is selected from the group consisting of social media websites, social media apps, and social media channels.

13. The computer program of claim 10, wherein the user selectable items of the first set and the second set include at least one of:

selectable squares, selectable icons, selectable indicia, slidable on/off indicators, checkboxes, and selectable buttons.

14. The computer program of claim 10, wherein the second set of user selectable items corresponds to at least two different types of content.

15. The computer program of claim 10, wherein the content displayed on the display screen, of the types selected and from the social media networks selected by the user, are displayed in order of at least one of:

time of posting, date of posting, and popularity, regardless with which of the social media networks the content is associated.

16. A handheld communication device configured for aggregating and filtering different types of content from a plurality of social media networks, the handheld communication device comprising:

a display screen;

a user interface;

a processing element communicably coupled with the user interface and the display screen; and

a memory element communicably coupled with the processing element, the memory element having a computer program stored thereon for operating functions of the handheld communication device, the computer program comprising;

a code segment, executable by the processing element, for presenting on the display screen a first set of user selectable items each corresponding to one of at least three social media networks;

a code segment, executable by the processing element, for presenting on the display screen a second set of user selectable items each corresponding to one of at least three different types of content from the social media networks, wherein the plurality of different types of content includes at least two of;

photos, videos, and text, wherein the user selectable items of the first set and the second set are presented in a grid on a single user interface screen;

a code segment, executable by the processing element, for receiving a selection from the user interface of at least two of the user selectable items of the first set and a selection of at least two of the user selectable items of the second set; and

a code segment, executable by the processing element, for presenting, on the display screen, content from the plurality of social media networks, wherein the content displayed on the display screen only includes the types of content selected by the user from the social media networks selected by the user, wherein the content displayed on the display screen excludes the types of content not selected by the user or not received from the social media networks selected by the user.

17. The handheld communication device of claim 16, wherein the user selectable items of the first set and the second set include at least one of:

selectable squares, selectable icons, selectable indicia, slidable on/off indicators, checkboxes, and selectable buttons.

18. The handheld communication device of claim 16, wherein the plurality of social media networks is selected from the group consisting of social media websites, social media apps, and social media channels.

19. The handheld communication device of claim 16, further comprising a communication element configured to communicate with a server device to send and receive photos, videos, and text with the social media networks.

20. The handheld communication device of claim 16, wherein the content displayed on the display screen, of the types selected and from the social media networks selected by the user, are displayed in order of at least one of:

time of posting, date of posting, and popularity, regardless with which of the social media networks the content is associated.
