International Classification:

G06F 3/048

US Classification:

705 1453, 715751, 715716

Abstract:

Structured information about nodes may be generated and shared using sub-nodes. A node in a social networking system may be associated with sub-nodes that are definable by the node owner, such as menu items for a restaurant or songs in playlists for an artist. Users of the system may interact with the sub-nodes, and the interactions may be presented back on the page to a user, aggregated according to the user's connections in the social networking system (e.g., which songs your friends listened to the most by the artist, which menu items were consumed the most). Users may associate other sub-nodes to the node, such as identifying other menu items served by a restaurant, and the node owner may confirm these associations. Location awareness functionalities may be used to inform a user of highly recommended sub-nodes nearby as indicated by other users of the social networking system.

US Classification:

705 1438, 705 1439

Abstract:

A social networking system distributes offers to its users using the social networking users' news feed or another communication channel in the social networking system. To distribute offers, the social networking system receives a post from an advertising user, which includes a coupon or other offer that can be redeemed at a merchant establishment. The post generates an offer story that includes the post with the offer, and an option for claiming the offer. The social networking system sends the offer story to a viewing user of the social networking system, and receives from the viewing user a selection of the option for claiming the offer. To further distribute the offer, the social networking system sends a news story about the viewing user claiming the offer in a feed of news stories to one or more other users of the social networking system who are connected to the viewing user.

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a method includes, by one or more computing systems sending, to a client system of a user, query tokens to be presented to the user, wherein each query token is based on a natural-language string and comprises references to objects associated with an online social network, and wherein the query tokens are selected based on user preferences of the user, receiving, from the client system, a selection of a query token of the query tokens, determining completion tokens that correspond with the selected query token based on the references associated with the selected query token, sending, to the client system, the completion tokens to be presented to the user, receiving, from the client system, a structured query comprising the selected query token and a selected completion token, and sending, to the client system, instructions for presenting search results matching the structured query to the user.

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, at the mobile client system, a text string inputted into a query field by a first user, accessing, from a local data store, a set of grammar templates, each grammar template comprising query tokens referencing an object stored in the local data store, generating one or more natural-language suggested queries by matching portions of the text string to query tokens of the grammar templates, each suggested query comprising references to one or more of the objects stored in the local data store and the natural-language string of the matching grammar template, calculating a cost for each grammar template based at least in part on one or more portions of text string not corresponding to one of the query tokens, and displaying one or more suggested queries to the first user, each having a calculated cost below a threshold cost value.

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, from a link-search interface of a client device, a search query from a first user of an online social network. The link-search interface is associated with a composer interface in which the first user is composing a first post. The method further includes searching a web index of an online social network to identify one or more external objects matching a search query. The web index identifies a plurality of external objects hosted by third-party systems that have been posted to the online social network, and each search result comprises a reference to the respective external object and a link to the external object. The method further includes embedding, in the first post, a link to a first external object referenced by a first search result selected by the first user.

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a search query. The method includes generating query commands based on the search query. The of query commands include a first query command comprising a query constraint for objects having a first privacy setting, and a second query command comprising a query constraint for objects having a second privacy setting, wherein the second privacy setting is more restrictive than the first privacy setting. The method includes searching to identify a first set of objects that match the first query command, and a second set of objects associated that match the second query command. The method includes generating one or more search results and sending a search-results page to the client system of the first user for display.
