Abstract
A system for sharing information on a networked-based social platform is provided. A request from a first user of the network-based social platform is received. The request is to add an item to a list associated with a second user of the network-based social platform. The list is for watching items associated with a network-based platform distinct from the network-based social platform. Next, the system determines whether the first user is authorized to add the item to the list associated with the second user based on relationship information that identifies a relationship between the first user and the second user on the network-based social platform. Finally, the system communicates the request to the network-based platform to add the item to the list associated with the second user.
