Abstract:
Several embodiments include a social network system that generates an implicit social graph connection between a first social network object and a second social network object. The implicit social graph connection can be generated based on a shared profile attribute between the social network objects or a user interaction in the social network system. The social network system can store the implicit social graph connection in a social graph of the social network system. The social network system can provide a social network service that selectively presents, based on the implicit social graph connection, a content entry to a client of the social network system.
