Method, system, and computer program product for propagating remotely configurable posters of host site content
First Claim
1. A method for propagating a poster of host site content to remote users over the World Wide Web, comprising the steps of:
- (a) hosting a configuration session that allows a first remote user to configure a propagative poster of host site content based on at least one configuration selection input by the remote user;
(b) generating a propagative poster identifier that references the user-configured propagative poster;
(c) generating a Web code segment that includes the propagative poster identifier and a link to the host site; and
(d) forwarding the generated Web code segment to the first remote user in real-time;
whereby the generated Web code segment can be inserted into a Web page of the first remote user to create a first remote user-configured propagative poster on the Web page of the first remote user.

Abstract
A method, system, and computer program product for propagating access to host site content to remote users over the World Wide Web are provided. Access to host site content is distributed more widely and easily through propagative posters. Remote users can access a host site and configure propagative posters in real-time. A Web code segment corresponding to a configured propagative poster is then generated and sent to the remote user in real-time. A remote user can easily cut and paste the generated Web code segment into the user'"'"'s remote Web page. Alternatively, the generated Web code segment can be automatically inserted into the user'"'"'s remote Web page if access rights to write on the Web page are available. In one embodiment, a propagation poster manager is provided for managing propagation posters of host site content to remote users over the World Wide Web. The propagation poster manager includes a propagative poster configuration module and a propagative poster generator. The propagative poster configuration module hosts a configuration session that allows a remote user to configure a propagative poster of host site content based on at least one configuration selection input by the remote user. The propagative poster generator generates and forwards the propagative poster identifier and the Web code segment to the remote user in real-time.

41. A system for managing propagation of host site content to remote users over the World Wide Web, comprising:
-
a propagative poster configuration module that hosts a configuration session that allows a first remote user to configure a propagative poster of host site content based on at least one configuration selection input by the remote user; and
a propagative poster generator that generates a propagative poster identifier and a Web code segment, wherein the propagative poster identifier references the user-configured propagative poster the Web code segment includes the propagative poster identifier and a link to the host site, and forwards the generated Web code segment to the first remote user in real-time;
whereby the generated Web code segment can be inserted into a Web page of the first remote user to create a first remote user-configured propagative poster on the Web page of the first remote user. - View Dependent Claims (42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51)

53. A computer program product comprising a computer useable medium having computer program logic recorded thereon for enabling at least one processor to manage propagation of host site content to remote users over the World Wide Web in real-time over the World Wide Web (WWW), said computer program logic comprising:
-
first computer readable program code means for enabling said at least one processor to host a configuration session that allows a first remote user to configure a propagative poster of host site content based on at least one configuration selection input by the remote user;
second computer readable program code means for enabling said at least one processor to generate a propagative poster identifier that references the user-configured propagative poster;
third computer readable program code means for enabling said at least one processor to generate a Web code segment that includes the propagative poster identifier and a link to the host site; and
fourth computer readable program code means for enabling said at least one processor to forward the generated Web code segment to the first remote user in real-time;
whereby the generated Web code segment can be inserted into a Web page of the first remote user to create a first remote user-configured propagative poster on the Web page of the first remote user.
