Abstract: A computer-implemented method of interlacing responses within an instant messaging (IM) system can include, responsive to a request from a user in an IM session, storing an IM message fragment input by the user and associating the IM message fragment with a message selected from an IM session transcript. The method can include recalling the IM message fragment and outputting, at least in part, the IM message fragment in response to the message.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of ambient ad hoc project management can include defining a project and associating a project decay function with the project, wherein the project decay function regulates a rate at which project health declines. Responsive to detecting a project event, one or more parameters of the project decay function can be determined from the project event. Project health can be calculated according to the project decay function using the parameter(s). An indication of the project health can be output.

Abstract: A method of rendering email includes receiving with a networked computing device at least one filter criterion; receiving with the networked computing device an email message; and, responsive to a determination by the networked computing device that the email message meets the at least one filter criterion, diverting the email message from delivery to an inbox and providing an immediate display of the email message in its entirety to a user.

Abstract: A solution for managing a set of collaborative contacts is provided. Each collaborative contact includes one or more collaboration capabilities, each of which corresponds to a unique collaboration tool (e.g., voice over IP, instant messaging, email, and/or the like). Identifying text can be used to search the set of collaborative contacts and obtain a set of candidate contacts. An availability status for each collaboration capability of each candidate contact can be requested and a display can be generated that includes the set of candidate contacts. In one embodiment, the display can include an indication of the collaboration capabilities for one or more of the candidate contacts, and/or the availability status for one or more collaboration capabilities. A user can use the display to request a collaboration session between the user and one or more of the candidate contacts.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to virtual worlds and provide a method, system and computer program product for deploying and managing an avatar silhouette in a location in a virtual world. In one embodiment of the invention, a method for deploying and managing an avatar silhouette in a location in a virtual world can include creating and inserting a silhouette avatar into one location of a virtual world in correspondence with a primary avatar in a different location in the virtual world, rendering the silhouette avatar recognizable by an avatar in the one location and prohibiting independent movements by the silhouette avatar, and passing a communication directed from the avatar in the one location to the silhouette avatar in the one location along to the primary avatar in the different location.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for transmitting traffic congestion routing data to a community of global positioning system (GPS) devices. Community routing logic of a community routing system (CRS) receives a route request containing the current location and desired destination of a GPS device. The CRS may use the community routing logic to determine a path that the user of the GPS device should travel on to best minimize driving time and traffic conditions for a community of users of the CRS. The CRS considers road capacity, current traffic conditions, and historical traffic data for roads and alternate roads along a preferred route. The CRS also considers routes previously taken by the GPS device. Additionally, the CRS may receive information about routes taken by other GPS devices to further improve future routes of the community of GPS devices.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of enhancing data in a screenshot can include capturing a screenshot of content presented on a display and identifying within the content at least a first element comprising first semantic data. A first semantic representation of the first semantic data can be generated and the first semantic representation can be associated with the first element. The first semantic representation and the screenshot can be output.

Abstract: A set of edited changes associated with an editable file is displayed on a display associated with a computing device in response to receipt of a request via a user input device to display the plurality of edited changes. A contextual representation of the editable file is displayed. A context indicator is displayed within the contextual representation of the editable file that represents a location within the editable file associated with a first of the displayed set of edited changes. The context indicator is iteratively updated to represent a location within the editable file associated with each selected element of the displayed set of edited changes in response to detection of user selections of elements of the displayed set of edited changes received via the user input device.
