Abstract:

A computer system transmits a sequence of messages to multiple users. The first user subscribes to the sequence at a first time. In response, the system transmits each message in the sequence to the first user in sequence and at predetermined intervals (e.g., every month), beginning at the first user's subscription time. A second user subscribes to the sequence at a second time (e.g., a week after the first user's subscription time). In response, the system transmits each message in the sequence to the second user in sequence and at predetermined intervals (e.g., every month), beginning at the second user's subscription time. As a result, the system may transmit the same message in the sequence to different users at different times, and transmit different messages in the sequence to different users at the same time. Advertisements may be dynamically inserted within the messages based on their delivery times.
