Abstract:
1. A method for logging information associated with network discoverable media content, comprising: presenting, on a computing system, a network guide that displays a plurality of media content accessible to the computing system over a home computing network; identifying, by the computing system, an indication of user-interest of particular media content that is associated with a particular computing device other than the computing system, the particular computing device and the computing system at least temporarily connected over the home computing network; determining, by the computing system and based on the indication of user-interest, an address identification parameter that specifies a distinct network file path of the particular media content; deriving, by the computing system and based on the address identification parameter, a location parameter that specifies an estimated physical location of the particular computing device within the home computing network; storing, by the computing system, the address identification parameter within a network accessible media content log, the media content log presented within a display associated with the computing system based on user-selection of a particular designator within the display; and presenting a selectable icon in response to user-selection of the particular media content within the network guide, the selectable icon when selected instantiating an algorithm that creates a private version of the media content log.
