    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for enabling participant following in an electronic conference. An example method can involve generating a graphical interface for an electronic conference including a group of participants, the graphical interface displaying an active participant in a first display region and a panel of respective graphical participant representations in a second display region. The method can further involve receiving, via the graphical interface, an input requesting to move at least one of the respective graphical participant representations out of the panel in the second display region to a location in the first display region of the graphical interface, and based on the input, updating the graphical interface to display the at least one of the respective graphical participant representations in the first display region.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, instant messages or collaboration messages are organized in subgroups. A device is configured to receive data indicative of collaborative messages, identify a subgroup identifier from a first collaborative message of the collaborative messages, and encode the first collaborative message for transmission to a subgroup of receiving endpoint devices. The device identifies a second collaborative message and encodes the second collaborative message for transmission to a group of receiving endpoint devices including the subgroup of receiving endpoint devices. The first collaborative message is sent to or displayed by the subset of receiving endpoint devices and the second collaborative message is sent to or displayed by the receiving endpoint devices including the subgroup. The encoding is performed at the endpoint device or an associated server.
