Patent number: 10628430Abstract: Arrangements relate to the management of data items representing intended future conversations. A plurality of first inputs related to a respective intended future conversation can be received. At least one data item representing the respective intended future conversation can be created for each first input. At least one attribute can be received for each of the plurality of intended future conversations associated with-each first input. In response to receiving at least one attribute for each of the plurality of the intended future conversations associated with each first input, the plurality of intended future conversations associated with each first input can be ranked in a particular order based on at least one of the received attributes. A listing of the intended future conversations that is based on the ranking can be generated.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2012Date of Patent: April 21, 2020Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: W.

Patent number: 10375180Abstract: A method, system, and/or computer program product enables a user to selectively follow content postings from a content posting entity. A set of desired content posting entity traits describes traits of an ideal content posting entity that the content follower desires to follow. The set of desired content posting entity traits is compared to traits of a first candidate content posting entity. In response to the traits of the first candidate content posting entity matching the desired content posting entity traits, and in response to the first candidate content posting entity posting from a preselected location, the first candidate content posting entity is selected for future content postings to be sent to the content follower.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2013Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: Tracee L.

Patent number: 9224134Abstract: Arrangements disclosed herein relate to arranging a conversation among a plurality of participants. At least one user input related to a conversation intended by at least one user to take place can be identified. The desired conversation can include the plurality of participants. The conversation need not pre-scheduled. Contextual information of the plurality of participants can be monitored in real time to determine whether it is presently appropriate for the conversation to take place. When the contextual information of the plurality of participants indicates that it is presently appropriate for the conversation to take place, initiation of the conversation can be attempted.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2012Date of Patent: December 29, 2015Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: James E.
