Abstract: A communication server, computer-readable storage medium and computer-implemented method for executing commands embedded in messages are provided. The method may include detecting user input of a special character while a user is composing a message and in response to detecting the user input of the special character, presenting a selectable list of command operators to the user. The method may further include causing a command operator to be included in the message in response to user selection of the command operator from the selectable list of command operators. The command operator is operative to execute an action performed by a network-based service executing on an application server. The method may further include identifying, at an outbound communication serer, the command operator included in the message, and transmitting a request to the application server to perform the action corresponding thereto.

Abstract: A communication server, computer-readable storage medium, and computer-implemented method for executing commands embedded in messages are provided. The method may include accessing a message that is being routed through a communication server. The message may include a command operator that is operative to execute an action performed by a network-based service executing on an application server. The method may further include identifying the command operator included in the message, and transmitting a request to the application server to perform the action corresponding thereto.

Abstract: A system, computer-readable storage medium, and computer-implemented method for maintaining an accurate organization chart, are presented. The method may include accessing organization chart data defining a hierarchy of an organization comprising a group of users. At least one user of the group of users may be prompted to provide verification information pertaining to the accuracy of a portion of the organization chart data. Upon receiving the verification information from the at least one user, the method may include updating the organization chart data in accordance with the verification information.
