Abstract

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for allowing parties exchanging digital objects and members of social networks to catalog certain data objects as favorites in a cataloged interface and which allow the parties to access and interact with the catalog of favorited content.

Claims

1. A computer-implemented method of synchronizing a keepsake view interface comprising:

directing, through a server, a data object between a first user account and a second user account;

receiving, at the server, an instruction from a user associated with either the first user account or the second user account to mark the data object as a favorited data object; and

memorializing, by the server, a favorited status for the data object such that data objects favorited by a user associated with the first user account and data objects favorited by a user associated with the second user account are available in a keepsake view interface for both the user associated with the first user account and the user associated with the second user account.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein directing a data object between users of a first user account and a second user account further comprises encrypting the data object at the server.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2, wherein directing a data object between users of a first user account and a second user account further comprises:

saving an encrypted version of the data object in a cloud-based storage platform; and

providing the first user account and the second user account with a key for accessing the encrypted version of the data object.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 3, wherein memorializing a favorited status for the data object comprises the server sending an instruction to the cloud-based storage platform to notate the data object with a favorited status.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

receiving an instruction from any of the first user account and the second user account to remove the favorited status of a data object; and

removing the memorialized favorited status from the data object, thereby removing the data object from the keepsake view.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein data objects in the keepsake view interface include timestamps, the method further comprising:

re-sending the data object to the first user account and the second user account on an anniversary of the timestamp.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein data objects in the keepsake view interface include timestamps, the method further comprising:

collecting additional data objects directed between the first user account and the second user account having timestamps with predetermined degree of temporal closeness to the timestamp of the data object in the keepsake view;

including the additional data objects in the keepsake view.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

compiling favorited data objects in the keepsake view interface; and

creating a journal displaying favorited data objects from the keepsake view interface.

9. A computer-implemented method of memorializing affinity data comprising:

linking, in a social networking server, a first user account with additional user accounts;

receiving a status update from the first user account;

creating a virtual space for presenting the status update to one or more of the additional user accounts;

receiving affinity information relating to the status update from the one or more additional user accounts;

memorializing the affinity information in the social networking server; and

providing an affinity view to the first user account for accessing affinity information from additional user account for status updates from the first user account.

10. A computer-implemented method of memorializing affinity data comprising:

linking, in a social networking server, a first user account with additional user accounts;

posting status updates from one or more of the additional user accounts on a virtual wall associated with the first user account

receiving affinity information relating to the status updates from the first user account;

memorializing the affinity information in the social networking server; and

providing an affinity view to the first user account for accessing status updates from additional user accounts that received affinity information by the first user account.

11. A computer-implemented method aggregating affinity data for networking applications comprising:

receiving, by a processor, credentials for a first networking application and an additional networking application;

receiving, from one or more networking servers, networking information from both the first networking application and the additional networking application;

displaying the networking information from both the first networking application and the additional networking application in a networking aggregation view interface;

receiving affinity information relating to one or more data object contained in the networking information; and

displaying an aggregated affinity view interface showing data objects relating to the affinity information received by both the first networking application the additional networking application.

12. A system for synchronizing a keepsake view interface comprising:

a server configured to;

direct a data object between a first user account and a second user account;

receive an instruction from a user associated with either the first user account or the second user account to mark the data object as a favorited data object; and

memorialize a favorited status for the data object such that data objects favorited by a user associated with the first user account and data objects favorited by a user associated with the second user account are available in a keepsake view interface for both the user associated with the first user account and the user associated with the second user account.

13. The system of claim 12, wherein the server is further configured to encrypt the data object before directing the data object between the first user account and the second user account;

14. The system of claim 13, further comprising:

a cloud-based storage platform operatively coupled with the server, wherein the server is further configured to;

save an encrypted version of the data object in the cloud-based storage platform; and

provide the first user account and the second user account with a key for accessing the encrypted version of the data object.

15. The system of claim 14, wherein the server is further configured to:

send an instruction to the cloud-based storage platform to notate the data object with a favorited status.

16. The system of claim 12, wherein the server is further configured to:

receive an instruction from any of the first user account and the second user account to remove the favorited status of a data object; and

remove the memorialized favorited status from the data object, thereby removing the data object from the keepsake view.

17. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising:

a medium configured to store computer-readable instructions thereon; and

the computer-readable instructions that, when executed by a processing device cause the processing device to perform a method of synchronizing a keepsake view interface, comprising;

directing, through a server, a data object between a first user account and a second user account;

receiving, at the server, an instruction from a user associated with either the first user account or the second user account to mark the data object as a favorited data object; and

memorializing, by the server, a favorited status for the data object such that data objects favorited by a user associated with the first user account and data objects favorited by a user associated with the second user account are available in a keepsake view interface for both the user associated with the first user account and the user associated with the second user account.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17, wherein directing a data object between users of a first user account and a second user account further comprises encrypting the data object at the server.

19. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 18, wherein directing a data object between users of a first user account and a second user account further comprises:

saving an encrypted version of the data object in a cloud-based storage platform; and

providing the first user account and the second user account with a key for accessing the encrypted version of the data object.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 19, wherein memorializing a favorited status for the data object comprises the server sending an instruction to the cloud-based storage platform to notate the data object with a favorited status.

21. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 20, and the instructions further causing the processing device to perform the steps of:

receiving an instruction from any of the first user account and the second user account to remove the favorited status of a data object; and

removing the memorialized favorited status from the data object, thereby removing the data object from the keepsake view.
