Abstract

A system, computer-readable storage medium, and computer-implemented method for creating a crowdsourced content publication. Layout information defining a layout of elements of a crowdsourced content publication is received. Contribution privilege information identifying a group of users of a social networking service as contributors to the crowdsourced content publication is received. The group of users may belong to a common organization as defined by a social graph maintained by the social networking service. Content criteria information specifying one or more criteria for selection of content included in the crowdsourced content publication is then received. The layout information, contribution privilege information, and content criteria information are then processed to generate a template for the crowdsourced content publication.
