Publication number: 20090013262Abstract: A document server system is described that comprises a plurality of electronic documents, plurality of messages relating to the electronic documents and an interface server for providing a client user interface. The client user interface provides a front user interface configured to display an electronic document to collaborators of the document. The front user interface includes a front switching input. Activation of the front switching input causes the client user interface to switch from the front user interface to a back user interface. The client user interface provides the back user interface configured to display one or more of the plurality of messages for each individual user that is related to the document on the front user interface. The back user interface includes a back switching input. Activation of the back switching input causes the client user interface to switch from the back user interface to the front user interface.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2007Publication date: January 8, 2009Applicant: LUNARR, Inc.Inventors: Hideshi Hamaguchi, Toru Takasuka
