Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure provides for determining whether object accesses that occur in a file system qualify as relevant events, and displaying information about relevant events in a social file storage interface. A social file storage interface can provide a news feed of recent relevant events, a subscription list that displays information about relevant events performed by colleagues, and an access map that displays a visual representation of relevant events and relevant objects in the file system. An object access qualifies as a relevant event if an attribute of the object access satisfies relevance criteria defined by a user. If a user is not authorized to access an object, a relevant event pertaining to that object will not be displayed to the user in the social file storage interface. An object can also be accessed and opened from within the social file storage interface.
