SOCIAL NOTIFICATION SYSTEM

The invention, Social Notification System (SNS), is a method and system for notifying users that changes have occurred to various content or events, including, changes to Web content, new product launches, updated user profiles, non-Web events (beginning of a social gathering), or other changes or events have occurred. Web surfers will select content or events from a publisher's site by clicking on a button, hypertext link, widget icon, or by selecting by other means provided by the publisher, whereby the end user will receive notifications regarding such chosen content or events. The buttons or widgets may be provided by a SNS script or may be provided by the publisher of the content or event. The content chosen will be tracked by the SNS, so that the end user can be notified, by the SNS, of changes or events. These notifications will be sent out in various intervals and methods.
