摘要： A system for clearing content displayed in the live session display area of an instant messaging system. The system enables a session participant to clear the content currently visible to each other participant in the session, either immediately, or in response to a criteria such as elapsed time or elapsed time since active in the session. The content that is cleared from the live session display area is not permanently lost, but is only temporarily hidden from the live session display area. The system further enables a local participant to recall such temporarily hidden content back into the live session display area.

摘要： A system for selective sharing of flagged information in a group chat (i.e. instant messaging) that generates a user interface object enabling a flag setting participant to indicate which of the other chat participants can see a visible flag they are setting in association with selected content of the chat session. The flag is then visible only to those indicated other participants, both during the chat session and within copies of the saved chat transcript. A user interface object (e.g. a context window) provides chat participants with the ability to conveniently identify information about individual flags in the chat session, such as the identity of the participant that set a flag, when the flag was created, the priority associated with the flag, and/or other information. The system further enables chat participants to filter the contents of a chat transcript, so that only a subset of the chat transcript is displayed, based on flags contained in the transcript. Chat participants can also associate priorities with specific individual flags and/or all flags set by a given participant, and/or generate a “to do” list based on the flags in the transcript.

摘要： Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to e-mail processing and provide a novel and non-obvious method, system and computer program product for a unified presentation of scattered e-mail data. In one embodiment of the invention, a unified presentation of scattered e-mail data method can include selecting an e-mail in an e-mail list of an e-mail client, locating scattered data for the selected e-mail, and presenting the scattered data in a pop-up window proximate to the selected e-mail. In one aspect of the embodiment, selecting an e-mail in an e-mail list of an e-mail client can include selecting an icon adjacent to an e-mail in an e-mail list of an e-mail client. In another aspect of the embodiment, selecting an e-mail in an e-mail list of an e-mail client can include mousing over an icon adjacent to an e-mail in an e-mail list of an e-mail client.

摘要： A system for providing open session based selective broadcasting in an instant messaging system. The instant messaging system user is provided with a mechanism through which they can broadcast a user-defined message to the participants in all currently open instant messaging sessions with the user, or to the participants in a selected subset of currently open instant messaging sessions with the user. The system provides the ability to capture and save a list of the participants receiving a previously broadcast message. The captured participant list can be subsequently recalled and used to broadcast another user defined message when the interruption ends, and the user can resume participation in the sessions.

摘要： A system for verifying the identity of a chat partner during an instant messaging session. The identity of an instant messaging partner can be verified at any given moment during an instant messaging session. The status of the verification is displayed in the current session, and is contained into any subsequently saved session history file. Prior to the beginning of communication, a participant has the ability to challenge one or more other participants to verify that they are really the people assigned to the corresponding instant messaging identifiers. During the instant messaging session, participants are further allowed to challenge any other participant before going further with the session (e.g. prior to discussing confidential information or accepting files). The system addresses the problem of an unauthorized user gaining access to another user's instant messaging identifier.

摘要： A system for providing feedback to a chairperson in an electronic meeting scheduling system to enable improved meeting resource management, in which a chairperson can indicate the attendance modes that are permitted for specific invitees to a meeting. The meeting invitations indicate to the invitees the attendance modes they are permitted to use. Meeting invitees are presented with user interface options allowing them to select from potentially multiple attendance modes, determined in response to inputs from the chairperson, and/or in response to information describing resources. As meeting resources are allocated to accepting invitees, those resources become unavailable for selection by subsequently accepting invitees. Meeting acceptances are collected such that indications of how accepting attendees will attend the meeting are made available in a chairperson interface so that the chairperson can adjust resources allocated for the meeting to reflect how accepting attendees are planning to attend.
