Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for facilitating a meeting is implemented in a server computer and provides a graphical user interface to one or more client devices. The server displays a mind map of a center topic on the clients. The server collects statements of participants, and extracts words and phrases therefrom, to identify topics that are currently being discussed. The server determines whether a transition has occurred between the topics, and then calculates a correlation between the topics that are currently being discussed and the center topic. The server determines a location of the topics that are currently being discussed on the mind map, based on the calculated correlation, and displays an updated mind map on the clients. The server generates a warning on the clients when the server determines that the meeting proceedings are being retarded, based on the calculated correlation.

Abstract: An approach for sharing information. The approach includes a method that includes generating, by at least one computing device, a message within a communication layer overlaid on a web page. The method further includes generating a screen shot of the web page. The method further includes sending the screen shot and the message to another user as a memo configured to be displayed on the communication layer overlaid on the web page on a receiving computing device.

Abstract: A method, system, and/or computer program product manages electronic mail (e-mail). An e-mail Graphical User Interface (GUI) depicting photos of e-mail users is generated, such that the photos in the e-mail GUI depict e-mail users, and wherein the e-mail GUI is displayed to a system user. A visual cue is appended to at least one photo in the e-mail GUI, wherein the visual cue describes how many e-mails between a photo-depicted e-mail user and the system are unread.

Abstract: A method and system for inputting an email address is provided. The method includes generating an email and receiving a command for entering a character into a recipient field of the email. An address book of a user is queried and in response, a list of candidate recipients is generated. The list is transmitted to a social network adapter communicatively connected to social networks of the user. In response, social networking data of the user is retrieved and the list is sorted with respect to the user and the social network data. The sorted list is presented to the user.

Abstract: A grating of fiber reinforced plastic comprising a plurality of main beams of substantially I-shape in section made of fiber reinforced plastic and arranged in parallel to one another, and grid members also made of fiber reinforced plastic and engaged with the plurality of main beams to be integrally fixed to one another. By such a construction, there is produced an a cooperation between the high strength of the main beams and the load transmission performance of the grid members resulting in higher strength than conventional gratings of the same material. Individual components of the grating are suited for standardization and mass production, and besides gratings of various length and width are achieved by variation in the combination of the components.
