Inventors:

Patrick Herbert Cox - Raleigh NC, US

Jeremy Gray Perry - Cary NC, US

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709206

Abstract:

A system, method, and program product are provided that receives an instant messaging request from a sender over a network, such as the Internet. The instant messaging request is directed to requesting an instant messaging session with a primary recipient. The system determines whether the primary recipient is available. If the primary recipient is available, the system sets up the instant messaging session with the primary recipient. On the other hand, if the primary recipient is unavailable, the system identifies a backup recipient. This is accomplished by retrieving stored backup recipient identifiers that correspond to one or more backup recipients associated with the primary recipient. At least one available backup recipient identifier from the one or more stored backup recipient identifiers is identified, and the instant messaging session is set up with the identified (available) backup recipient.

Abstract:

A method for providing a workspace management tool includes presenting a workspace overview graphical user interface (GUI) having a first area and a second area. The first area includes visual indicators of favorite applications of a user, and the second area includes multiple regions, each region representing a different work space. The method further includes receiving, via the workspace overview GUI, a user request to open a new window for one of the favorite applications in a first work space, adding the new window to the first work space, and presenting the new window in a reduced form in a region representing the first work space without overlapping other open windows of the first work space.
