Abstract

A method, system and computer program product for improving understanding of comments on collections of data. A social media stream is monitored for comments to a container (e.g., photo album) and elements within the container (e.g., photographs). These comments are stored in a data structure along with an identification of the container or element of the container upon which the comments are directed. In response to a user selecting to view comments to an element within the container or the container itself, the data structure is searched for the comments to the selected element or container. Images of the container are then displayed in a fliptych manner, where the selected element or container is displayed in the center section of the fliptych. A list of comments is displayed in a comments section below the fliptych, where the list of comments includes highlighted comments directed to the selected element or container.
