First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- determining, that a content has been output for more than a threshold time duration;
causing, after determining that the content has been output for more than the threshold time duration, an image capturing device to capture an image of a user consuming the content;
retrieving, based on an identity of the user, authentication information for a social network;
comparing, by a computing device, the image of the user to a plurality of predefined expressions, and finding a matching expression; and
sending, to a server of the social network;
the authentication information; and
instructions for posting, to the social network, a message indicating an identity of the content and the matching expression.

9. A method comprising:
-
determining, by a computing device and from one or more segments of content, a reaction-generating segment; inserting, into the content, a tag associated with the reaction-generating segment, wherein the tag indicates a type of user from which to collect reaction data associated the reaction-generating segment; and capturing, based on determining that the content has been output to a user of the indicated type for at least a threshold time duration, reaction data of the user of the indicated type. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)
