Abstract:
1. A method of implementing a user interface for a social network via a mobile electronic device, comprising, by one or more processors: causing a display of a mobile electronic device to present to a first user a social network user interface such that the user interface displays a plurality of posts from a plurality of additional users who are connected to the first user in the social network; selecting one of the displayed plurality of posts; highlighting the selected post on the display; based on an output of a motion sensor of the mobile electronic device, detecting that the first user has shaken the device while the selected post was highlighted; causing, in response to detecting that the first user has shaken the device while the selected post was highlighted, an expression of positive reaction of the first user to the selected post to be displayed via the social network so that the expression of positive reaction can be viewed by at least the user who provided the selected post to the social network; and determining whether the motion sensor senses that the first user has shaken the device again within a threshold period of time after detecting the first shake, and if so causing the social network to remove the expression of positive reaction.
