Abstract: A method of communicating a presence state for a group of users having user terminals relating to their presence in a virtual communication space provided by a communication server on a communication network. The virtual space provides a plurality of distinct communication modes referred to as “activities” that can be shared by all of the users of said group. The method includes associating each activity of the virtual space with a graphics icon representing the activity, the icon being for displaying via a graphics interface implemented by any activity sharing client application that is installed in each user terminal. A presence state is determined for each user of the group. For each of the activities, a graphical representation for the associated icon is determined as a function of the presence state for the users relative to the activity, enabling visual identification of user(s) participating in the activity.

Abstract translation: 一种在由通信网络上的通信服务器提供的虚拟通信空间中的具有与其存在有关的用户终端的用户组的通信状态的方法。 虚拟空间提供可被所有组的所有用户共享的被称为“活动”的多个不同的通信模式。 该方法包括将虚拟空间的每个活动与表示活动的图形图标相关联，该图标用于经由安装在每个用户终端中的任何活动共享客户端应用程序实现的图形接口进行显示。 确定组的每个用户的存在状态。 对于每个活动，关联图标的图形表示被确定为用户相对于该活动的存在状态的函数，使能够参与该活动的用户的视觉识别。
