Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed for promoting and sharing social content for view in a network. An index engine of a network device queries a client device requesting a data connection to the network device for sharable social media content. The index engine receives, in response to the query, the social media content from the client device. The network device indexes the social media content in a data store of the network device. The indexed social media content is transmittable to requesting client devices connected to the network device.
