A social network system provides a social network that receives from an application a business object and an associated system of record and generates a social object that corresponds to the business object and that comprises the system of record for the enterprise application. The social network assigns one or more members to the social object. The social network receives first changes to the system of record and, in response, modifies the social object to incorporate the first changes. The system provides second changes to the social object to the enterprise application, and the enterprise application, in response, modifies the system of record to incorporate the second changes.

Social network system with social objects

A social network system that tracks unread messages across a social network for a social network user receives a request from the user to display unread messages across the social network and generates and displays a list of one or more conversations, where the user is a member of the displayed conversations. The system then, for each conversation, determines and displays the number of unread messages.

A social network system provides a social network that receives from an application a business object and an associated system of record and generates a social object that corresponds to the business object and that comprises the system of record. The social network assigns one or more members to the social object and associates a wall to the social object. The wall displays changes to the system of record, as well as other activity related to the social object.

Apparatus, methods, and computer program products are disclosed that determine Rights to an entity. The disclosed technology maintains data structures representing a set of entities. These entities include protected-entities and sensitivity-entities. Each of the sensitivity-entities is associated with a respective sensitivity access-control-list. The sensitivity-entities include a first sensitivity-entity that is associated with a first sensitivity-access-control-list. A first protected-entity being one of one or more of the protected-entities associated with the first sensitivity-entity. The technology evaluates Rights to the first protected-entity with respect to the first sensitivity-access-control-list and enables access to the first protected-entity responsive to the Rights evaluation and presents the first protected-entity when access is enabled.
