Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for indicating an organization of a visitor on a user interface of a user engaged in collaborative activity with the visitor. The visitor attempting to engage in a collaborative action (e.g., participating in an online meeting, sharing files) with a user from a different organization is authenticated to confirm that the visitor has the right to engage in collaborative activity with the user from the different organization. The identification of the organization of the visitor is extracted from the information used to authenticate the visitor. The identification of the organization of the visitor is then displayed on the user interface of the user engaging in the collaborative action with the visitor. In this manner, the organization of the visitor is easily discoverable by the user without requiring the user to perform a time consuming search to determine the organization of the visitor.

Abstract: A computer receives a plurality of records each relevant to a relationship between a first person and a second person. The computer determines a communication score of a communication from the first person to the second person, wherein the score is based on at least one of the plurality of records. The computer compares the communication score to an established mediation threshold. Responsive to determining that the communication score violates the established mediation threshold, the computer passes the communication to a user device of the second person. Further, the computer prioritizes the plurality of records according to a set of priorities, and presents the plurality of records to the first person or to the second person.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for allowing a user to view network contacts of other users when visiting an environment of a different organization. A visitor requests to view a profile of a user while the visitor is visiting the environment or tenant space of a different organization. The organization of the visitor is obtained. Furthermore, the organization and network contacts of the user whose profile is requested to be viewed are obtained in response to validating the visitor's organization. The requested profile is then displayed to the visitor containing the accessible network contacts (if any) of the user based on whether the user and the visitor belong to the same organization.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for sharing the contents of a presentation in a web conference. A web conference server in a web conferencing system extracts a document that is likely to be viewed by the presenter during the web conference prior to the presenter actually viewing the document. The web conference server processes the extracted document into a displayable screen image which is sent to the participant computers in the web conference to be cached. When the presenter computer actually displays the extracted document, the web conference server informs the participant computers to display the cached screen image. Since the screen image of the document has already been cached by the participant computers, the document will be more quickly viewed by the participant computers and will reduce the time lag between when the presenter views the document and when the audience views the same content.
