Abstract

According to various example embodiments, a prompt is superimposed over a second user profile page that is being viewed by a first user, the prompt inviting the first user to update their own user profile page, based on the second user profile page being viewed. For example, the prompt may invite the first user to add a piece of content on their profile page that is included in the second user profile page but is missing from the first user profile page.
