Abstract
A user can author content, and submit such content to be posted within a social networking context, from an external service such that the user can undo the posting of such content without such content ever having been posted in the social networking context. Additionally, once such user-authored content is posted in the social networking context, the user is provided with a single action that can remove all relevant manifestations of such content. The submission of user-authored content, to a social networking service, from an external service is delayed while, simultaneously, such external service presents the user with an interface indicating that such user-authored content has already been submitted to the social networking service and posted thereon. Should the user select to undo the posting of such content prior to the expiration of the delay, the submission can simply never be performed.
