Publication number: 20240406229Abstract: Aspects of the technology described herein provide a collaborative browsing experience in which real-time browsing activity and saved browsing activity of session collaborators in a collaborative browsing session are shared with the collaborators. A collaborative session may be initiated, which may create a tab group associated with the session and linked to a collaborator. Other collaborators may be invited to join the session, and additional tab groups for each collaborator may be created. The tab groups of the collaborators may be included in a collective tab group, which may be updated in real-time with changes made by any of the collaborators. For example, client changes may be handled locally and communicated to a service to which each client is connected. The service may sequence and broadcast the ordered changes to the clients, which may each implement the changes according to the sequence to synchronize a shared state amongst clients.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 9, 2024Publication date: December 5, 2024Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Avi Ashish VAID, Joseph Jiwoong OAK, Mohamed MANSOUR

Publication number: 20240005280Abstract: System and methods for collaborative workspaces for content browsers are provided. In one embodiment, a method for a collaborative content browser comprises: obtaining a network address for a workspace management document; opening, at a browser, the workspace management document from a shared network resource based on the network address, the workspace management document recording a browser state for rendering a collaborative browser workspace in the browser; executing a browser process to generate a workspace shell for the workspace by rendering structural features of the workspace shell based on the browser state, the structural features including an user interface with a browser tab; synchronizing project resource data from the browser state to render network content from a project resource in the browser tab; and communicating an update to the browser state based on a change applied at the browser to the structural features or the project resources.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2022Publication date: January 4, 2024Inventors: Avi Ashish VAID, Kevin Reis DiCLEMENTE, Joseph Jiwoong OAK, Erik J.

Publication number: 20230291775Abstract: Aspects of the technology described herein provide a collaborative browsing experience in which real-time browsing activity and saved browsing activity of session collaborators in a collaborative browsing session are shared with the collaborators.

Other collaborators may be invited to join the session, and additional tab groups for each collaborator may be created. The tab groups of the collaborators may be included in a collective tab group, which may be updated in real-time with changes made by any of the collaborators.

Patent number: 11714872Abstract: A network service maintains a recently used resource list for a user that includes a list of references (e.g., hyperlinks) to resources (e.g., files) recently accessed by the user. An application, such as a web browser application or a web browser extension, periodically retrieves the recently used resource list for the user from the network service. When the application is utilized to display a text entry field, a user interface (“UI”) can be provided for inserting references to recently used resources identified in the recently used resource list into the text entry field. Through the UI, the user can select a resource identified in the recently used resource list using appropriate user input (e.g., selection of a resource using a mouse cursor, touch, or keyboard input). In response thereto, a reference (e.g., a hyperlink) to a selected resource can be inserted into the text entry field.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2021Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Avi Ashish Vaid, Joseph Jiwoong Oak, Mohamed Mansour

An application, such as a web browser application or a web browser extension, periodically retrieves the recently used resource list for the user from the network service. When the application is utilized to display a text entry field, a user interface (“UP”) can be provided for inserting references to recently used resources identified in the recently used resource list into the text entry field. Through the UI, the user can select a resource identified in the recently used resource list using appropriate user input (e.g., selection of a resource using a mouse cursor, touch, or keyboard input).
