First Claim
1. A method of identifying conversations of a social network system having relevance to a first file, comprising:
- identifying a plurality of conversations within the social network system, wherein the plurality of conversations each have a relationship with the first file, wherein the social network system provides a platform for storing and sharing conversation, and each conversation includes a conversation and associated information;
generating, by a system server, a list of inquiries based on the plurality of conversations, wherein the list of inquiries includes search terms used in a search that identified the first file and the plurality of conversations, thereby establishing the relationship between the first file and the plurality of conversations by text analysis or filtering;
providing, by the system server, the list of inquiries to at least one sender of the first file, wherein the sender is provided with write-privilege to the first file;
receiving from the at least one sender at least one response to the list of inquiries;
selecting a subset of the plurality of conversations based on the at least one response;
storing information related to the selected subset of the plurality of conversations for access if the first file is selected;
providing, by the system server, the selected subset of the plurality of conversations to a user that selects the first file; and
identifying the at least one sender to the user.
