Abstract: Architecture that provides enhanced tag telemetry in a microblogging communications infrastructure. The architecture provides efficient discovery and tracking of topics that are of interest to a specific user by enabling users to follow (track) hash tags (#tag) and to receive and view all messages tagged with the hash tag appear in the user's personal feed. Each hash tag has a persisted tag page that aggregates all the associated activity, and includes a list that includes, but is not limited to, the tag followers, the most frequent user (uses the tag the most often in a specific time frame), a description, related tags, for example. The user can receive all the updates in the user's personal feed, and see an aggregation of all the messages and conversations associated with the tag in single place. The user can also mute the tag to prevent the receiving of tag information.

Abstract: A method for providing collaborative interaction between a receiver computing device and a sender computing device is provided. The method includes at the receiver computing device, establishing a local peer-to-peer wireless connection with a sender computing device, receiving from the sender computing device via the local peer-to-peer wireless connection data for a GUI of a remotely executed application program that is executed on the sender computing device, displaying the GUI on a display associated with the receiver computing device, receiving user input from an input device associated with the receiver computing device indicating a user interaction with the GUI, sending the user input to the sender computing device, receiving from the sender computing device data indicating an updated state of the GUI generated by the sender computing device based on the user input, and displaying the updated state of the GUI on the display associated with the receiver computing device.

Abstract: Server-based collaboration is initiated by an email. When the user creates the email message with attachments, a collaboration website is provisioned. The collaboration website allows collaborations on the attached documents by the recipients of the message. The ease of collaboration with email and the advantages of the collaboration server are thus both available to the user.

Abstract: Social networking feed extensibility based on data types is described. An apparatus may comprise a custom feed system that when executed by a processor is operative to customize a social networking feed for a social networking system. The custom feed system may comprise a message reception component operative to receive a message from a client device, a message analysis component operative to determine a message type of the message based on a syntax of the message, and a message display component operative to display the message with a message display style specific to the message type of the message. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Architecture that facilitates the discovery of interesting and relevant content by a user in a serendipitous way on a microblogging site. For example, relevant content can be defined as connected to the user, the user's work, and user interests, while interesting content can be defined as content that does not directly affect the user, yet the user chooses to obtain (e.g., for viewing, interacting, etc.). The content can be presented as a tile cluster, where each tile is a specific content type (e.g., image, link, post, user recommendations, tags, etc.). Additionally, the content can be obtained and presented relative to a specific temporal setting such as the latest content. The different content types are visually distinguished such that one type of content looks and behaves differently from another content type. The user can also drill into content details from the top content.

Abstract: A conferencing system provides the scheduling of virtual meetings with meeting lobbies so that a meeting presenter can conduct a virtual meeting without the need to send out invitations to attendees. A person that wants to conduct a virtual meeting can schedule with the conferencing system a meeting with a meeting lobby. The meeting lobby has an address, but there is no associated privileged information, such as a meeting password. Would-be meeting attendees use the meeting lobby address to enter the meeting lobby as visitors in the lobby, and request to enter the meeting from the meeting lobby. A meeting presenter can then either grant authorization for a visitor in the meeting lobby to enter the meeting, or deny authorization for a visitor in the meeting lobby to enter the meeting. If a visitor in the meeting lobby is denied authorization to enter the meeting from the meeting lobby, the conferencing system removes the visitor from the meeting lobby.
