Patent

CA 2740733

A system and method is described where Instant Message (IM) and other semi- synchronous communication sessions may be tied to the user's current dynamic status in order to share with collaborating parties, the degree of attention that a user may provide to the session. IM allows for collaboration even when a user cannot provide his/her full attention to an exchange, however, it will increase the efficiency and avoid misunderstandings if the user can send updates on his current level of attention along with explanatory messages when there is a significant change in the user dynamic status. For example, if the user has to go to a meeting or receives an important telephone call during an IM session, the other party will be advised accordingly. Thus, recipients will not assume that they are being ignored or that the user has become frustrated with the exchange.
