Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes connecting on a call with a caller and determining if social network information associated with the caller is available. If it is determined that social network information associated with the caller is available, the social network information is obtained and utilized to identify at least a first agent suitable for participating on the call with the caller. The first agent is associated with a call center. The method also includes providing the caller with information that identifies the first agent as being suitable for participating on the call with the caller.
Abstract:
A system in one embodiment includes a server associated with a unified messaging system (UMS). The server records speech of a user as an audio data file, translates the audio data file into a text data file, and maps each word within the text data file to a corresponding segment of audio data in the audio data file. A graphical user interface (GUI) of a message editor running on an endpoint associated with the user displays the text data file on the endpoint and allows the user to identify a portion of the text data file for replacement. The server being further operable to record new speech of the user as new audio data and to replace one or more segments of the audio data file corresponding to the portion of the text with the new audio data.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining mobility information associated with a remote device. The mobility information indicates whether the remote device is approximately stationary. The remote device interacts with a server. The method also includes determining if the mobility information indicates that the remote device is approximately stationary, and selecting a first profile of a plurality of profiles if the remote device is approximately stationary. If the remote device is not approximately stationary, a second profiled of the plurality of profiles is selected.

Abstract:
A routing system is disclosed for routing communication events. The system comprises at least one data queue for queuing incoming events; at least one interaction mechanism for enabling bi-directional communication with authors of events in queue; and a processor for processing events in queue according to routing rules. In a preferred embodiment authors of the communication events are solicited through the at least one interaction mechanism to make a value contribution in exchange for advancement in the data queue.
Abstract:
Techniques and configurations for an apparatus are provided for creating and managing meetings using gestures. Movements of a user's hand in a three-dimensional space are detected. The hand movements in the three-dimensional space are interpreted to identify a gesture intended by the user to set up or manage a meeting among a plurality of persons. An electronic command is generated from the detected gesture to set up or manage the meeting.
Abstract:
A method in one embodiment includes receiving input identifying a plurality of callers within a listening or speaking range of a phone device being used to place a call. The input is then sent over a packet-based network to a server that authenticates and authorizes each of the callers to the call. Following authentication and authorization by the server, a name or caller ID of each of the callers is sent to a destination endpoint device of the call. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, an apparatus for automated generation of subject line content for e-mail messages includes an input operable to receive content data including text-based information corresponding to a body of an e-mail message, a text analyzer including logic operable to analyze received content data, a topic extractor including logic operable to extract topic data in accordance with an output of the text analyzer, a string generator including logic operable to generate subject line data in accordance with an output of the topic extractor, and a message output operable to output a multi-field e-mail message having a body field inclusive of the content data and a subject line field inclusive of generated subject line data.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes detecting, by an automated program, an attempt by a recipient of an email addressed to a plurality of addressees that includes the recipient to send a reply-all email. The automated program rejecting the reply-all email based on a pre-set policy rule that limits a number of reply-all email in a thread. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure.
Abstract:
In an example embodiment, a technique that allows members of a group at multiple locations to have private conversations within members of the group while participating in a conference call. Group members are defined and divided into virtual conference rooms. When a group mute is requested, signals originating from members of the group are distributed to locations where group members are present, while all participants of the conference call, including the members of the muted group, receive un-muted media signals.
