Abstract
A method for automatic creator identification of content to be shared in a network service. An exemplary method includes receiving a resource identifier that identifies a resource including content that is to be shared with a set of one or more users of the network service. A request for the resource identified by the resource identifier is transmitted by a network interface and the resource is received from a server end station. The method includes automatically identifying a creator of the content based upon the received resource and transmitting a preview to be displayed to the set of users that identifies the creator and includes a user interface element allowing the respective other user to view additional content from the creator or become associated with the creator within the network service.
