Abstract

Social network initiated listings can be implemented by using keyword extraction of a social network post containing a sell code. The extracted keywords can be categorized using a machine based categorization system. The listing user account of the post creator can be identified using active session analysis. A listing is created using the listing user account. A new post that contains a URL to the listing is then programmatically published on the social network.
