Abstract
A method and system for associating a discussion thread with content uploaded to a social networking environment is disclosed. When a first user uploads content, an alert, in the form of an e-mail message or a link on a Web page, is transmitted to one or more second users to inform them of the content. The first user assigns access control criterion defining the second users to whom the alert is sent. Optionally, access control criteria define second users who can submit comments to the discussion thread. Second users submit comments by replying to the alert or by selecting a link on a Web page containing the content. The social networking environment maintains a Web page containing messages sent to a user. The user filters the messages based on a proximity index, relationship designators, group designators and/or tier designators.
