Abstract

Nowadays, while increasing variety of online social networks (OSNs), content management has become harder. The paper suggests social media pages’ managers to publish their contents, including the composition of image, video or text, only once on a OSN and then contents will simply transfer to other OSNs with an add-on software without having to re-use the internet traffic. Suggested method has more high performance than similar ones on any OSN. Also, the proposed technique makes it possible to transmit content between OSNs belonged to different companies. In this study, due to the availability of suitable facilities in both OSNs of Telegram and Instagram, an intermediary software, was implemented under the Android operating system and this action was carried out for the transmission media from the Instagram OSN to the Telegram channels or groups. This study contains three innovations than related researches. The first one is transmission content with the least usage of Internet traffic between OSNs which are not supported by one company. The next innovation is a caching software system to reduce processes of extracting contents from source OSN’s network. The third item is transmission delay time decreased sharply. As a result, the trial version has served users and managers of pages and channels, including the official Telegram channel of a TV program named "90" and a news feed named "CANNews" (the analytical aviation industry news feed). Overall, this method not only has 98.81% correct action, but also contents are fitted into the post format of the destination OSN.
