Definitions
- the present invention relates to a system and method which enables to capture all or part of a web page being viewed in a web browser in the form of a screenshot, to store this screenshot thereby, and to share it by means of various sharing environments without having to install any application or add-in.
- share buttons located in some web pages do not make it possible to share part of the content in that web page or only that content and they enable to share link address of that page. And in such a case, the user sharing the content cannot lay emphasis on the intended point of the content and the user accessing the web page over the share cannot see the part to be focused in the content, has to view acontextual information such as other connections, advertisements in addition to the content of the web page.
- an add-in which can be installed on web browsers and enables users to be able to clip part of any web page and store it in cloud storage structures and add a note.
- This add-in is the one which must be installed by the user and it is configured so as to run together with the browser when it runs.
- An objective of the present invention is to realize a system and method which enables to capture all or part of a web page being viewed in a web browser in the form of a screenshot, to store this screenshot thereby, and to share it by means of various sharing environments without having to install any application or add-in.
- Figure 1 is a schematic block diagram of the inventive system.
- Figure 2 is a flow chart of the inventive method. The components illustrated in the figure are individually numbered, where the numbers refer to the following:
- a system (1) for capturing, storing, sharing page contents in the form of screenshot comprises:
- At least one browser (21) which runs on the client device (2); enables the client device (2) to communicate with the network in accordance with the user (K) requests; views the data received by the client device
- the client device (2) as a result of its communication with the network in the form of a web page that can be given meaning by the user (K); provides the interface and the infrastructure that will enable the user (K) to carry out operations on this web page; ensures that actions necessary with respect to these operations can be taken on the client device (2) and the network; at least one web server (3) with which the client device (2) establishes connection based upon the request made by the user (K) over the browser (21); wherein the data and the components that will be used for enabling to view the web page in the browser (21) and will be able to trigger connection of the client device (2) to other servers are stored; and which provides these data and these components to the client device (2) so as to be run and viewed in the browser (21) upon request; at least one application server (4) with which the client device (2) establishes connection after the data sent by the web server (3) to the client device (2) are run in the browser (21); which provides the application - that will enable to perform clipping, storing, sharing in the form of screenshot on the web page being viewed in
- the client device (2) is a desktop or mobile device with computer characteristics which has ability for communication over network and on which applications such as browser (21), etc. can be run.
- the browser (21) is a unit which runs on the client device (2); enables the client device (2) to communicate with the network in accordance with the user (K) requests; views the data received by the client device (2) as a result of its communication with the network in the form of a web page that can be given meaning by the user (K); provides the interface and the infrastructure that will enable the user (K) to carry out operations on this web page; ensures that actions necessary with respect to these operations can be taken on the client device (2) and the network.
- the browser (21) is a web browser and it has a structure such that it can run client parts of web applications and can provide interaction with web applications of the user (K).
- the browser (21) is a unit which indicates the interface members that will enable the user (K) to perform clipping, storing, sharing in the form of screenshot on the web page being viewed.
- the browser (21) can determine some information that will be displayed on the interface while displaying these said interface members and what are the information that may be requested from the user (for example, input information related to the storage platform (S) and/or the sharing platform (P)), over the data sent from the application server (4) to the client device (2).
- the operation of writing this image to the local storage space of the client device (2) is carried out by the browser (21) in the event that the user (K) wants to store the said screenshot in the local storage space of the client device (2).
- the web server (3) is a server with which the client device (2) establishes connection based upon the request made by the user (K) over the browser (21); wherein the data and the components that will be used for enabling to view the web page in the browser (21) and will be able to trigger connection of the client device (2) to other servers are stored; and which provides these data and these components to the client device (2) so as to be run and viewed in the browser (21) upon request.
- the web server (3) is a server which also sends a data or component that enables to send the application - that will enable to perform clipping, storing, sharing in the form of screenshot on the web page being viewed in the browser (21) - to the client device (2) from the application server (4) at the same time so as to be run in the browser (21) while sending the data that will be used for enabling to view the web page in the browser (21) to the client device (2).
- the user (K) wants to view the web page it is ensured that the application that will enable to perform clipping, storing, sharing in the form of screenshot on the web page can be run on the browser (21) without the need for any user (K) interaction and action.
- the application server (4) is a server with which the client device (2) establishes connection after the data sent by the web server (3) to the client device (2) are run in the browser (21); which provides the application - that will enable to perform clipping, storing, sharing in the form of screenshot on the web page being viewed in the browser (21) - to the client device (2) so as to be run in the browser (21); and which takes necessary actions according to the operations that are carried out by the user (K) with respect to the functions of clipping, storing, sharing on the browser (21) and that may be sometimes related to the storage platform (S) and/or the sharing platform (P) as well.
- the application server (4) organizes operations of creating account, logging in and signing on, storing the said screenshots with respect to this if the user (K) wants to store the captured screenshots under an account and on the application server (4); directs the user (K) by means of the browser (21) for these operations and carries out the operations.
- the application server (4) also organizes setups of storing and/or sharing with respect to these operations if the user (K) wants to store the captured screenshots by means of a storage platform (S) or share them by means of a sharing platform (P); directs the user (K) by means of the browser (21) for these operations.
- the application server (4) is also a server which is in communication with the client device (2) such that it will enable the users (K) to view the screenshots captured in the past and the operations carried out with respect to them in the form of lists by means of the browser (21).
- the application server (4) is also a server which is configured such that it can make sense of the screenshots captured by the user (K) over web pages by evaluating them and thus it can determine interests of the user (K) by using the algorithms included in the state of the art.
- a method (100) for capturing, storing, sharing page contents in the form of screenshot comprising steps of:
- the web server (3) sending the data - which will enable to view the web page subject to the user (K) request stated over the browser (21) in the browser (21) and to send the application to provide the clipping, storing, sharing features from the application server (4) to the client device (2) - to the client device (2) (103);
- the application server (4) sending the application - which will enable to perform clipping, storing, sharing in the form of screenshot on the web page being viewed in the browser (21) - to the client device (2) so as to be run in the browser (21) (104);
- the user (K) carrying out operations which may require the user (K) to use the storage platform (S) and/or the sharing platform (P) with respect to the clipping, storing, sharing features on the browser (21) (106);
