Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying electronic messages are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method includes, at a computing device, concurrently displaying (i) a user interface object that represents a group of messages and (ii) one or more first indicia of a number of messages that have a predefined display status, in the group of messages while foregoing displaying more than one message of the group of messages. The method also includes receiving a selection of the user interface object; and, in response to receiving the selection of the user interface object, displaying messages in the group of messages. The method further includes, in accordance with displaying the messages in the group of messages, modifying the one or more displayed first indicia of the number of messages, which have the predefined display status, in the group of messages.

Abstract: System and methods are provided for performing a method, for instance, at a computer system having one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors. In the method a search query is received. The search query identifies a message category from among a plurality of message categories. Each respective message category in the plurality of message categories corresponds to an electronic message display format in a plurality of electronic message display formats. Responsive to the search query, a search result comprising one or more electronic messages satisfying the search query is identified. The one or more electronic messages are prepared for display by formatting for display a first electronic message, in the one or more electronic messages, associated with the first message category. The formatting makes use of the electronic message display format that corresponds to the first message category.

Abstract: System and methods are provided for receiving selection, by a user, of a subset of message clusters in a plurality of message clusters. Each message cluster is associated with a corresponding set of clustering rules. Each respective electronic message, addressed to and/or from the user, in a plurality of electronic messages is assigned to one or more of the clusters in the subset of clusters in accordance with the sets of clustering rules associated with the subset of clusters. The set of clustering rules for a first cluster in the subset of clusters (i) prevents some messages in the plurality of messages from being assigned to the first cluster and (ii) assigns messages to the first cluster without regard to content relatedness between messages in the plurality of messages and messages already in the first cluster. Messages in the first cluster are formatted for display as a single cluster graphic.

Abstract: Systems, methods and computer readable media for persistent conversation and email integration are described. Some implementations can include a method comprising receiving a persistent conversation communication message sent from a first user to at least one other user, and adding the message to an email thread associated with the persistent conversation. The method can also include storing the persistent conversation message as part of the email thread, and creating a new email thread associated with the persistent conversation when a predetermined condition is met, wherein the condition is one of an elapsed time or reaching a predetermined number of messages in the email thread. The method can further include rendering a displayable version of the persistent conversation within an email client, the displayable version including a continuous display of email threads associated with the persistent conversation.

Abstract: Systems and methods for categorizing objects in accordance with one or more user categorization actions are disclosed. In some embodiments, the occurrence of one or more categorization actions is detected for a first object in a list of objects in a messaging application. Categorization actions include starring the object, dragging and dropping an object from one cluster to another, adding a new cluster label, and providing filtering rules for an object. Then a set of properties for the first object is updated in accordance with the one or more categorization actions. The updated set of properties for the first object is compared to one or more categorization rules. For instance, an exemplary categorization rule is that a starred message is to be displayed in a primary cluster. Then information for displaying the first object in the list of objects in accordance with the one or more categorization rules is prepared.

Abstract: System and methods are provided for receiving selection, by a user, of a subset of message clusters in a plurality of message clusters. Each message cluster is associated with a corresponding set of clustering rules. Each respective electronic message, addressed to and/or from the user, in a plurality of electronic messages is assigned to one or more of the clusters in the subset of clusters in accordance with the sets of clustering rules associated with the subset of clusters. The set of clustering rules for a first cluster in the subset of clusters (i) prevents some messages in the plurality of messages from being assigned to the first cluster and (ii) assigns messages to the first cluster without regard to content relatedness between messages in the plurality of messages and messages already in the first cluster. Messages in the first cluster are formatted for display as a single cluster graphic.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for automatically sharing media between users is provided. A first image is received depicting a scene with one or more persons. Face detection information is identified for each person in the first image. Identification information for each face detected is obtained without user intervention. The face detection information and the identification information are associated with the first image. The first image including the associated face detection information and identification information is sent to a server hosting a media sharing service. An access link to an event group is received. The event group includes an album of the first image and a first collection of images that share a set of common features with the first image.
