  • Patent number: 10691872
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for normalizing the recipient style of electronic messages while preserving the discernible intent of the sender. Given an electronic message or series of messages with varying visual styles applied to message text and other content, the electronic message may be transformed with a normalized and consistent formatting style that is more pleasing to the recipient, while preserving the sender's discernible intent in stylizing the message.

  • Patent number: 10498680
    Abstract: Technologies are described for chronological re-ordering of transmitted conversation components. A message transmitting a message chain in the conversation through a forward or reply action, or addition of a new participant may be kept at the top and the remainder of messages may be re-ordered in chronological order. In some examples, the displayed properties (metadata) or header information may be normalized, that is displayed in a consistent manner. In other examples, flat header information (textual data) may be analyzed and enriched. Thus, the header information may be presented with interactive features such as presence information, calendar presentation, and comparable ones.

  • Patent number: 10191891
    Abstract: Technologies are described for rich visualization of embedded objects, attachments, and links within emails and similar forms of online conversations. In some examples, the embedded objects, attachments, and links may be analyzed and parsed to generate teasers, which may include enhanced images, summary information, and comparable features. The teasers may be presented within a body of an email or in a dedicated area of a conversation user interface and include interactive features such as presentation of detailed information upon selection without opening and processing individual emails.

  • Patent number: 10003561
    Abstract: Technologies are described for modification of conversation presentation for enhanced user experience. Parts of the conversation may be detected and analyzed for their properties such as who sent a message, who received, when, was anyone left out from or added to the conversation, etc. The extracted properties and analyzed information may then be used to reverse a chronological order of the conversation and present it using interactive features such as collapsing and expanding parts of the presented information, providing a summary, removing unnecessary content, and comparable features.

  • Patent number: 9009592
    Abstract: Automatic capture and population of task and list items in an electronic task or list surface via voice or audio input through an audio recording-capable mobile computing device is provided. A voice or audio task or list item may be captured for entry into a task application interface or into a list authoring surface interface for subsequent use as task items, reminders, “to do” items, list items, agenda items, work organization outlines, and the like. Captured voice or audio content may be transcribed locally or remotely, and transcribed content may be populated into a task or list authoring surface user interface that may be displayed on the capturing device (e.g., mobile telephone), or that may be stored remotely and subsequently displayed in association with a number of applications on a number of different computing devices.
