Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for filtering posts. One of the methods includes filtering a set of pages that are maintained in a social networking platform and in which a user has expressed interest based on one or more user-identified categories to identify a subset of the pages that are associated with the one or more identified categories. The method includes identifying posts in a data store associated with the pages in the subset. The method includes identifying a trending post from among the identified posts based on a measure of popularity of the identified posts. The method also includes sending data to a user device to cause the user device to display at least the trending post and some of the other identified posts with the posts ordered in the display with the trending post presented first and additional posts ordered chronologically.
