  • Patent number: 10521251
    Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein provide hosted third-party application experiences within storage service viewers. Users can store a number of files having many different formats (AutoCAD files, word processing documents, spreadsheets, presentation files, and many files having unique formats) at a storage service. Users can view and edit the contents of a wide range of file formats by the use of a Web browser. The storage service can generate a display page that is configured to access viewing and editing tools from one or more remote services. The display page can also provide controls for the storage service, e.g., Dropbox controls, while concurrently providing the viewing and editing controls for select files. The viewing and editing tools can be provided by one or more remote services, such as a website managed by a third-party entity, such as Autodesk, Inc.

  • Patent number: 10191898
    Abstract: A spreadsheet includes a native spreadsheet object that represents a person. The person object may be used within a spreadsheet just as any other spreadsheet objects are utilized. For example, the person object may be integrated with spreadsheet formulas and other spreadsheet objects such as charts, tables, pivot tables, sheets, and the like. Spreadsheet formulas may perform operations specific to a person object (e.g. send message, get contact information, get status, get other person specific information, sort, and the like). Common actions may be associated with the person object, such as initiating communication with the person represented by the person object (e.g. phone call, email, text message, collaboration invite, and the like). Social networking information may also be associated with a person object. For example, social networking posts may be included within a spreadsheet, a user may post to a social network from the spreadsheet, and the like.

  • Patent number: 9026590
    Abstract: Sharing calendar information may be provided. Calendar information may be shared with individuals that may or may not be associated with a local exchange server in order to coordinate schedules. A determination is conducted to decide whether a sender is authorized to send calendar information to another by examining registration rights. Next, if the registration rights are valid, input may be received from the sender associated with sending the calendar information to another using one or more entry points. Next, calendar information settings are received from the sender, which are used when sending the calendar information to another. Next, calendar information is published to the Internet based on the calendar information settings established by the sender, and provided to others for viewing.
