An instant messaging system generates an instant messaging application user interface display object enabling the user to select one or more buddies, or a predefined group from their buddy list, and then to select a file to share with the selected buddies or group. The instant messaging system then controls sharing of the file within the selected buddies or group, by allowing only one of the sharing users to check out and modify the shared document at a given time. The instant messaging system user interface displayed to each user also displays the list of files that are shared with that user. The instant messaging system user interface further provides a current status for each shared file, including an indication of one of the sharing users that currently has the shared file checked out.

摘要:
A system for automatically providing different levels of formality controls in a communication is disclosed, in which a formality level is determined based on a current communication context. The formality level is used to enable an appropriate level of automatic checking of the communication contents. The determination of a formality level for a communication may be based on any specific context information regarding the participants and/or contents of a communication. including but not limited to the relative positions of participants within an organizational hierarchy (“organizational distance”), the professional relationships of the participants (e.g. service provider to client/customer), the frequency of communications between participants, the geographic locations of participants, the number of previous errors in the communication contents, configurable participant preferences, express communication settings by participants, etc. The determined formality level may be used to enable any specific type or level of automatic message contents checking, including but not limited to various types and levels of spell checking (e.g. location specific spell checking), grammar checking, acronym substitution, cultural filtering, etc. The disclosed system may determine organisational distances based on the contents of user directories, such as lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) directories.
摘要:
A system for eliminating the time lost in initial stages of a Web conference due to participants not being in-place on-time is disclosed. The system enables automatic steps to be taken at the server to pull conference participants into a conference based on their acceptance of an invitation to the conference. A server system provides indications of confirmed conference participants to agent software on the client systems, and activates client side agents when the a conference is about to start. The Web conference server communicates relevant conference information to each client side agent. The agent launches the user's client side browser and automatically performs any other preliminary steps that are required to join the participant to the conference. The participant user may be presented with a user interface that enables them to either accept or reject the automatic login to the conference. If the user rejects the automatic login, then indication of this rejection is passed to the server. Other information passed from the client system to the server may include an indication that no response to the accept/reject prompt was received from the user, an indication that automatic login to the conference was attempted but failed for some specified reason, indication that the participant was automatically logged in to the conference but is not at their desk, that the participant's client system is not connected to the network, or that the participant is currently active in another application or activity on their client system.
