摘要:
The present invention discloses a text exchange facility that permits a user to combine multiple pre-existing text exchange interfaces into a single interface. When previous text exchange interfaces are joined, different tabs can be presented in a joined interface. A one-to-one correspondence can exist between tabs in the joined interface and active real-time text exchange sessions. Joining interfaces can have no effect on the underlying text exchange sessions or upon communications/activities experienced by communicators with whom the user exchanges textual messages. Joined interfaces can be identified by a user specified topic or name. In one embodiment, history and/or records concerning text exchange contents can be maintained on a topic-by-topic manner.

The present invention presents a solution for prioritizing instant messaging (IM) communications based on sender/receiver relationships and for presenting selective notifications based upon the established priorities. The invention can include a data store, a message prioritization engine, and a client-side IM application. The data store can manage information describing relationships among people and recipient configurable IM prioritizing information. The message prioritization engine can determine a priority value for IM communications based upon the relationships and recipient configurable IM prioritizing information of the data store. The client-side IM application can receive IM messages that have an associated priority value established by the message prioritization engine. The client-side application can present an indicator of the priority value for associated IM messages within a user interface. In one embodiment, the information describing relationships used by the prioritization engine can be acquired from at least one social networking system.
摘要:
An instant messaging (IM) interface, system, and method, where the interface includes a dialog region and a communication entry region. The interface can optionally be an interface of a social networking Web site or application. The dialog region is configured to present a running IM dialog that includes content exchanged in real-time between a set of IM communicators. The dialog region is configured such that at least a portion of the content from IM communicators presented in the dialog region is presented in an original language in which it was entered and is also presented in a translated form in a different language specified by settings specific to the user of the IM interface. The communication entry region is configured to permit content to be input that is to be conveyed to each of the IM communicators participating in an IM communication session involving the user of the IM interface.
摘要:
An event triggering an automatic real-time metric evaluation can be identified. A metric can be selected from one or more of metrics associated with the triggering event. Metric input can be collected from at least one source relevant to the selected metric. The collected metric input can be evaluated against one or more rules associated with the selected metric. The evaluation of the metric can be presented in real-time to an appropriate user. Based on the outcome of the evaluated metric, a programmatic action can be performed.
