Abstract: To employ presence-based history information in conjunction with a notebook application, presence information for one or more users associated with a notebook application is determined from a variety of presence services. One or more interactions of the users are tracked in conjunction with a location within the notebook to record history information associated with the one or more users. The history information may be presented to the users through a user interface in conjunction with a location within the notebook application or through a separate user interface. The presented history information may include the recorded history information and statistical information based on the recorded history information. The users may interact with the user interface to employ the presented presence-based history information in conjunction with contents of the notebook application. For example, replay of user interactions in conjunction with a location within the notebook application may be enabled.

Abstract: To employ presence information in conjunction with a notebook application, presence information is determined for one or more users associated with a notebook application. The presence information may be obtained from a variety of sources, such as a communication application, a social or professional network, and a presence module of the notebook application. Once determined, the presence information is presented to the users through a user interface in conjunction with a location within the notebook application or through a separate user interface. The notebook application may further track the presence information for the users interacting with the notebook application. The users may then be enabled to interact with the user interface to use the presented presence information in conjunction with content maintained by the notebook application.

Abstract: Techniques to cross-reference information for application programs are described. An apparatus may comprise a first application program to create notes for an operator, a second application program to display a target document, and a context reference module to generate a context reference for the target document indicating a source for the target document, display the context reference, and associate the context reference with a note. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Architecture for emphasizing changes in collaborative or shared documents. A user can now quickly see what content was changed (hence, unread content) since the last time the user viewed the document or page. A tool automatically tracks and annotates the new content and author of the content for collaboration users. The architecture provides author highlighting on a page or document, which is turned on automatically when the user goes to the page or document. Widgets are displayed in association with the unread content that indicate which user authored all or portions of new unread content. Synchronization of the content update document content so that other users can readily see what is new and the author. A master file is created that stores the emphasis information and associated author information. The file can be stored at any location that is accessibly by the collaborative clients.

Abstract: Techniques to generate event contexts for recurring events are described. A computer system may comprise a context management module with an event detection module to detect a first occurrence of an event, a context recording module to record context information for the event, the event detection module to detect a second occurrence of the event, and a context generator module to create an event context for the event with the context information during the second occurrence of the event. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Techniques to cross-reference information for application programs are described. An apparatus may comprise a first application program to create notes for an operator, a second application program to display a target document, and a context generation module to generate a context for a note by displaying a document view for the target document using stored context information when the note is displayed. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Techniques to share information between application programs are described. An apparatus may comprise a first application program to create notes for an operator, and a second application program to display a target item. The apparatus may further include a note interface module to associate the note with the target item, and display a visual indicator on the target item indicating whether a note is associated with the target item. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
