Abstract: A touch-based device provides invocation control over a keyboard user interface (UI). The device displays a keyboard UI overlaid on an application UI to allow a user to interact with the application UI. A dismissal UI is displayed adjacent to the keyboard UI to allow the user to dismiss the keyboard UI. The keyboard UI is dismissed in response to detecting a user action on the dismissal UI. The device presents a lock UI and an invocation UI adjacent to the lock UI. In response to detecting another user action on the lock UI, the user is prevented from invoking the keyboard UI.

Abstract: A vertical or horizontal scrollbar or scrollbar-like navigation component may be used as both a navigation tool and as a live notification area in which a variety of valuable, interesting or other information may be presented. Marks or other icons and/or indicators may be provided in the scrollbars for conveying information and notifications to a user. Cross-document navigation may be provided through a horizontal or vertical pane for allowing a user to see and navigate graphical representations (e.g., text and/or thumbnails) of a variety of documents or other content items, wherein the graphical representations may include summary text or icons for providing a variety of information to the user about associated represented documents and other content items.

Abstract: The description relates to opportunity events. One example can filter events based upon at least one parameter from a profile of a user. The filtering can produce potential opportunity events for the user. The example can compare the potential opportunity events to the user profile utilizing a similarity threshold such that the potential opportunity events that satisfy the similarity threshold are considered opportunity events. The example can rank the opportunity events by confidence level of matching the user profile. The example can also automatically populate high ranking individual opportunity events onto a calendar of the user. The example can further notify the user about the automatically populating.

Abstract: Research items are stored in a research organization space within a document. The research organization space is separate from the document workspace that contains the document, itself. User inputs are provided to modify the research items or the document, by including research items within the document. Research items or document content are modified based on the user inputs.

Abstract: Architecture that facilitates the discovery of interesting and relevant content by a user in a serendipitous way on a microblogging site. For example, relevant content can be defined as connected to the user, the user's work, and user interests, while interesting content can be defined as content that does not directly affect the user, yet the user chooses to obtain (e.g., for viewing, interacting, etc.). The content can be presented as a tile cluster, where each tile is a specific content type (e.g., image, link, post, user recommendations, tags, etc.). Additionally, the content can be obtained and presented relative to a specific temporal setting such as the latest content. The different content types are visually distinguished such that one type of content looks and behaves differently from another content type. The user can also drill into content details from the top content.

Abstract: Architecture that provides enhanced tag telemetry in a microblogging communications infrastructure. The architecture provides efficient discovery and tracking of topics that are of interest to a specific user by enabling users to follow (track) hash tags (#tag) and to receive and view all messages tagged with the hash tag appear in the user's personal feed. Each hash tag has a persisted tag page that aggregates all the associated activity, and includes a list that includes, but is not limited to, the tag followers, the most frequent user (uses the tag the most often in a specific time frame), a description, related tags, for example. The user can receive all the updates in the user's personal feed, and see an aggregation of all the messages and conversations associated with the tag in single place. The user can also mute the tag to prevent the receiving of tag information.
