  • Publication number: 20240007511
    Abstract: Medium, method and system for ad hoc, ambient, synchronous multimedia collaboration in a group-based communication system. Embodiments of the invention provide a way for users to quickly establish a real-time collaboration among a group of peers without the burden and overhead of a conventional call or video meeting. Users can quickly and easily join and leave these synchronous multimedia collaboration sessions at any time, without disrupting the session for other users. This enables the user to experience the collaboration as a convenient forum rather than a burdensome scheduled event.

  • Publication number: 20220109707
    Abstract: Media, methods, and systems are disclosed for ad hoc, ambient, synchronous multimedia collaboration in a group-based communication system. Embodiments of the invention provide a way for users to quickly discover and initiate real-time collaboration sessions among groups of other users without the burden and overhead of a conventional call or video meeting. Users can quickly and easily discover and switch into and out of these synchronous multimedia collaboration sessions at any time, without disrupting the sessions for other participating users. This enables a diverse set of users to experience a rich multimedia collaboration session collaboration as a convenient ad hoc forum rather than a burdensome scheduled event.

  • Patent number: 10872198
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for rearranging content within resized sub-regions of a web page. First, resizing of a first sub-region of the webpage is detected by a user dragging a slidable border of the sub-region. A span value associated with dimensions of the first resized sub-region is determined and defining minimum dimensions of the first resized sub-region are defined. A subset of the dimensions of the first resized sub-region that fit within the span value is defined based on the minimum dimensions of the resized sub-region. The dimensions of the first resized sub-region include a fixed parameter and a dynamic parameter. The contents of a second sub-region of the webpage are rearranged in response to the resizing of the first resized sub-region and displaying displayed.

  • Patent number: 10044660
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, apparatus, and methods for integrating a service console application by providing communication between a first and second network domain. In various implementations, first data is received at a second network domain, where the first data includes one or more functions. A first message may be received at the second network domain, the first message being provided at the second network domain in response to the one or more functions being invoked, and the message identifying the one or more functions. Responsive to receiving the message, the one or more functions may be executed at a computing device associated with the second network domain. Responsive to executing the one or more functions, a second message may be sent to the first domain indicating that the one or more functions have been executed, where the second message is operable to invoke and execute one or more call back functions.
