Abstract: An online system determines a client device associated with a user that is to receive a new notification. The client device presents the notification and receives an input to forward the notification to a different client device and/or a different application. The client device sends a request to the online system to forward the notification. The online system determines a list of available client devices and/or available applications that are able to receive a forwarded version of the notification and provides the list to the client device for selection. Upon receiving a selection, the client device sends the selection to the online system which generates the forward notification that is appropriate for the selected client device and/or selected application. Thus, the online system avoids over-notifying a user, while also enabling the user to consume the content of the notification according to his/her preferences.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for reducing latency in presenting digital videos. In one aspect, a system includes a front-end server that provides videos and local servers that each include a cache for storing videos that have been partially presented at client devices located in a same geographic location as the local server. The system includes a back-end server that selects a video in response to a content request received from a client device located in the same geographic location as a local server. The back-end server provides, to the client device, at least a portion of the video and determines that less than all of the video was presented at the client device. The back-end server reduces latency in presenting additional portions of the video at the client device by storing the video in the cache of the local server.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and media for indicating viewership of a video are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: identifying a video; identifying a first group of users; determining an affinity score for each user with the identified video; receiving a request to present a page that includes a representation of the video; identifying a second group of users connected to the first user associated with the user device; determining a viewership status of each user in the second group of users corresponding to the video; identifying a subset of users in the second group of users based at least in part on the viewership status; and causing groups of indicators to be presented on the user device, wherein each indicator in the groups of indicators represents the viewership status of the user, and wherein the indicators are presented on the requested page in connection with the representation of the video.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for notifying a user regarding movement of a content item which the user has previously expressed interest in, to a new network location. In one or more aspects, a system includes a notification generation component configured to generate a notification indicating a content item has been moved from a first content source to a second content source in response to movement of the content item from the first content source to the second content source. The system further includes a notification posting component configured to send the notification to a device or an account of a user based in part on a subscription of the user to the first content source or the content item.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and media for recommending collaborators of media content based on authenticated media content input are provided. In some implementations, the method comprises: receiving a request from a content creator to initiate presentation of broadcasted media content using a media device, wherein the request invites a plurality of users to participate in the broadcasted media content; determining that a user of the plurality of users has interacted with the broadcasted media content, wherein the user has been permitted to interact with the broadcasted media content in response to providing user authentication information; determining collaborator information associated with the user based on the user authentication information; and automatically causing, without user interaction, the determined collaborator information to be presented to the content creator for associating with the broadcasted media content.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and media for indicating viewership of a video are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: identifying a video; identifying a group of users connected to a first user of a user device; determining, for each user in the group of users, an affinity score, wherein the affinity score indicates an interaction of the user with the identified video; receiving a request to present, on the user device, a page that includes an indication of the video; in response to receiving the request, determining contextual information related to the request; identifying a subset of users in the group of users connected to the first user based on the affinity score associated with each user and the contextual information; and causing a group of indicators corresponding to the subset of users to be presented on the user device in connection with the indication of the video.

Abstract: Systems and methods of measuring the visibility of overlay content in a display of a computing device are provided. A page renderer can identify a position of a video block with respect to a web page rendered on the client device, identify a portion of the web page visible in a viewport of the client device, identify a portion of the video block visible in the viewport, and pass data identifying the portion of the video block visible in the viewport to an element renderer. The element renderer can receive the data, identify a position of overlay content with respect to the video block, compare the position of the overlay content to the portion of the video block visible in the viewport to determine visibility of the overlay content in the viewport, determine whether the visibility meets a visibility threshold, and provide visibility data to a records server.
