Abstract
Embodiments of the invention relate to social media and recordation of programs scheduled to be broadcast. Media content on one or more sites are gathered and characteristic data, such as associated tags, are extracted. A correlation of the media content with scheduled television programming is performed to identify any television programs that are related to the extracted content. In response to at least one match, a television program associated with the match is selected for a scheduled recording so that it may be viewed at a later point in time.
