Abstract: A system and machine-implemented method for verifying ownership of an organization and providing authenticated organizational badges to be displayed is provided. A request for ownership verification is received from an organization. A first bi-directional link between a profile page for the organization and a control panel designated to the organization is established. A second bi-directional link between the profile page for the organization and a webpage of the organization is further established. An ownership of the organization is verified based on the established first and second bi-directional links. When the ownership of the organization is verified, a badge based on the profile page for the organization is provided for display in the web-based application.

Abstract: Systems and methods for restricting a scope of a post are provided. In some aspects, a post for a first set of users is received from a first user. An indication of the post is provided to at least a portion of the first set of users. A request to further share the post with a third user is received from a second user within the first set of users. A maximum scope for the post is determined. If the third user is within the maximum scope for the post is determined. The indication of the post is not provided to the third user if the third user is not determined to be within the maximum scope for the post.

Abstract: In one aspect, a method includes receiving a request from a user to add one or more users or user groups to a communication session, determining if one or more access rights restrictions are associated with the session, the one or more access rights restrictions defining one or more users or one or more types of users authorized to join the session, determining if the one or more users or user groups are authorized to join the session according to the access rights restrictions when it is determined that one or more access rights restrictions are associated with the session and adding the one or more users or user groups to the session when it is determined that the one or more users or user groups are authorized to join the session. Other aspects can be embodied in corresponding systems and apparatus, including computer program products.

Abstract: We have invented a method and device for enabling users of enterprise software products to create, publish, and share reviews of enterprise software products. This useful, concrete and tangible result is accomplished through a server-hosted website accessible through the Internet. There are unique challenges with creating and sharing reviews of enterprise software products (compared to other products), and our invention solves these problems using several new and innovative methods we created, which form the basis of this application. Using this website, users of enterprise software can create a review of a product they are using or deploying, and also view reviews created by other users about the enterprise software products they are interested in. With usage, this invention becomes a global repository of enterprise software product reviews and a resource for users worldwide to share opinions and experiences to help each other evaluate, select, buy, and use enterprise software products.
