Abstract: Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to communication bridging in a telecommunication system. According to a specific example, a data-communications service provider uses a data-communication server and a uniform resource locator (URL) generation circuit to form a communication bridge between a different disparate chat rooms. The URL generation circuit generates a URL associated with the communication bridge. Using the generated URL an assimilation and processing circuitry, chat messages may be received and conveys by using the server and respective communication protocols associated with the chat rooms, between participants of the chat rooms.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to communication bridging among disparate platforms in a remote communications environment involving first and second chat rooms. According to a specific example, a communications system is configured to provide remote communications services including a communication bridging service and another type of data communications services, in the remote communications environment. In certain embodiments the system may provide or generate connectivity data, such as a uniform resource locator (URL), to facilitate formation of the communication bridge, and may identify chat room protocols associated with the first and second chat rooms. The system is further configured to translate chat messages using the specifications for the first and second chat room protocols, and transmit chat messages between the first chat room and the second chat room.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to communication bridging in a telecommunication system. According to a specific example, a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) communication server is provided comprising a uniform resource locator (URL) generation module configured and arranged to form a communication bridge between a first protocol-disparate chat room and a second protocol-disparate chat room in response to receipt of a request from a participant of one of the chat rooms. The URL generation module can identify the participant as being associated with a customer, and redirect the participant to a customer-specific account provided by the communication bridging service. Using the customer-specific account, the URL generation module can generate a URL associated with the communication bridge. Using the generated URL an assimilation and processing module can translate chat messages received, and transmit the translated chat messages between the first chat room and the second chat room.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to communication bridging among protocol-disparate chat rooms in a telecommunication system. According to a specific example, a data communications server data communications server transmits chat messages between a plurality of protocol-disparate chat rooms accessible by users of a communication bridging service, a user interface (UI) circuit receives from a user of a first protocol-disparate chat room, a command requesting formation of a communication bridge associated with the first chat room, and a circuit facilitates formation of the communication bridge by generating a URL (uniform resource locator) associated with the communication bridge, by sharing or distributing the URL to a user of a second protocol-disparate chat room, and forming the communication bridge between the first chat room and the second chat room using the URL.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to communication bridging among disparate platforms in a virtual office environment. According to a specific example, a virtual service module configured and arranged to provide virtual office services including a communication bridging service and Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) conference services, in the virtual office environment. The VoIP communication server further comprises a uniform resource locator (URL) generation module configured and arranged to facilitate formation of the communication bridge by generating a URL associated with the communication bridge, and identifying chat room protocols associated with the first and second chat rooms. The VoIP communication server further comprises an assimilation and processing module configured and arranged to translate chat messages using the specifications for the first and second chat room protocols, and transmit chat messages between the first chat room and the second chat room.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to communication bridging among protocol-disparate chat rooms in a telecommunication system. According to a specific example, a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) communication server is provided comprising a first user interface (UI) module configured and arranged to receive a request to form a communication bridge between a first chat room and a second chat room. The VoIP communication server further comprises a uniform resource locator (URL) generation module configured and arranged to facilitate formation of the communication bridge by generating a URL associated with the communication bridge, and identifying chat room protocols associated with the first and second chat rooms.
