Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises establishing, by an IP-based meeting server via an IP network, a web-based media conference between an identified meeting presenter having a web-enabled presenter client device and identified meeting participants each having at least one corresponding participating client device; receiving, by the IP-based meeting server, monitoring data for each of the identified meeting participants, the monitoring data including, for each identified meeting participant, a detected interaction by the corresponding identified meeting participant with the corresponding participant client device; generating, by the IP-based meeting server, an aggregate attention metric identifying an aggregate focus of attention by the identified meeting participants, based on the received monitoring data; and outputting, by the IP-based meeting server, the aggregate attention metric for display by the web-enabled presenter client device of the identified meeting presenter.

Abstract: Methods and systems for transferring a communications exchange using a mobile handset are described. A radio frequency (RF) signal is transmitted from a mobile handset to a base station to provide a communications exchange. The communications exchange exists between the mobile handset and a first communications device. The mobile handset automatically detects a second communications device when it is in close proximity to the second communications device. The second communications device is capable of receiving a call handoff. If the mobile handset is in close proximity to the second communications device, then a transfer request including information associated with the second communications device is received from the second communications device. The transfer request is accepted and the communications exchange is seamlessly transferred to the second communications device form the mobile handset.
