Publication number: 20230368144Abstract: An example method to facilitate online collaboration includes granting access to an editable collaboration space to multiple users. The method also includes dividing the users into subgroups including at least a first subgroup and a second subgroup. In addition, the method includes assigning the subgroups to different virtual breakout rooms in the editable collaboration space, including assigning users in the first subgroup to a first virtual breakout room and assigning users in the second subgroup to a second virtual breakout room that is different than the first virtual breakout room. Further, the method includes populating each virtual breakout room with common initial content obtained from a virtual common room, the common initial content being the same in each virtual breakout room.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 26, 2023Publication date: November 16, 2023Inventors: Ryan J. Stringham, Jarom Yan-Ming Chung, Taylor Jessica Halversen, Karl Steven Baranov, Lindsey Whitefield Martin, Geoffrey Ryan Maddox, Sean P. McKenna, PinEn Chen, Vasu Nephi Chetty, Joseph Stack, Zachary Paul Luker

Publication number: 20230085169Abstract: An example method to cluster graphical objects in a collaboration space includes displaying graphical objects in a collaboration space, each of the graphical objects including text. The method includes receiving first input to select one or more of the graphical objects. The method includes receiving second input to cluster the selected one or more graphical objects according to intent, theme, or commonalities of the text of the selected graphical objects. The method includes determining one or more intents, themes, or commonalities of the text of the selected one or more graphical objects. The method includes, in response to the second input, clustering the selected one or more graphical objects according to the one or more determined intents, themes, or commonalities of the text of the selected one or more graphical objects.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 23, 2022Publication date: March 16, 2023Inventors: Ryan J.

Publication number: 20220108276Abstract: An example method to facilitate online collaboration includes granting access to a collaboration space to multiple client devices, each associated with a corresponding one of multiple users, the multiple users including a first user and a second user. The method includes receiving input from the first user to create a first set of graphical objects in the collaboration space. The method includes receiving input from the second user to create a second set of graphical objects in the collaboration space. The method includes applying different visual attributes to graphical objects authored by different users to visually identify an author or creator of each graphical object such that all graphical objects of the first set of graphical objects have a first visual attribute and all graphical objects of the second set of graphical objects have a second visual attribute that is different than the first visual attribute.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 5, 2021Publication date: April 7, 2022Inventors: Ryan J.
