    Abstract: [56] In one embodiment, techniques for sending a conference invite that provides access to a list of participants in an existing conference are provided. A participant in a conference (104-1... 104-n) may decide to send an invite for the existing conference to the user (106). A request for inviting the user into the existing conference is received. A list of participants in the existing conference is determined. An invite message for the conference is then generated where the invite message includes information for the list of participants (104-1... 104-n). The invite message is then sent to the user (106) where the information for the list of participants is accessible to the user. For example, the list of participants may be displayed as caller ID information when the invite message is received by the user.

    Abstract: A method of facilitating a telephonic response to an electronic message is described. The method includes determining at least one telephone number from a received electronic message, and assigning the determined telephone number dynamically to a button on the telephone to provide a speed dial button on the telephone. Determining the telephone number may include comparing an electronic mail address in an address field of the electronic message with a telephone directory to determine a telephone number associated with the address. If the electronic message is a text or a voice message, determining the telephone number may include parsing a body of the message to determine a telephone number, if present, which has been included into the body of the text message.

    Abstract translation: 描述了一种促进对电子消息的电话响应的方法。 该方法包括从接收到的电子消息确定至少一个电话号码,并且将确定的电话号码动态地分配给电话上的按钮,以在电话上提供快速拨号按钮。 确定电话号码可以包括将电子消息的地址字段中的电子邮件地址与电话簿进行比较,以确定与地址相关联的电话号码。 如果电子消息是文本或语音消息,则确定电话号码可以包括解析消息的主体以确定已被包括在文本消息正文中的电话号码(如果存在)。

    Abstract: Multiple authors' voices can be used in a text-to-speech (TTS) conversion of an email thread so that each part of the thread is read in that author's voice. A tag is used to identify which text portion corresponds to which author. Voice characteristics can be originated from an author's sending device or can be centrally stored in a voice characteristic database at a unified messaging server and provided to a recipient of the email thread. A similar approach can be used in a single document such as a change-tracked document that is being edited by multiple authors. The different voice characteristics of authors corresponding to different parts of the document can be accessed for TTS conversion so that a person listening on an audio device (e.g., phone, VoIP phone, cell phone, etc.) can identify the author of a specific part without the use of text or other displayed information. Voice characteristics can be centrally stored and delivered to users of audio devices to be used with a variety of text communications.

    Abstract: A unified messaging system for an enterprise includes a messaging module operable to store a message sent by a first user to a second user in a first media type, and to deliver the message to the second user in either the first type or a second media type. A natural language speech parsing (NLSP) module coupled with the messaging module is operable to detect an actionable item contained within the message, the messaging module dynamically modifying a response menu to include an option corresponding to the actionable item, and then presenting the modified response menu to the second user concurrent with or following delivery of the message. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, techniques for manipulating a voice message using a telephone user interface are provided. The telephone user interface receives a mark begin segment command from a telephonic device through a voice modality. The mark begin segment command indicates a beginning point for a voice message segment in the voice message. The telephone user interface then receives a mark end segment command from the telephonic device through the voice modality. The mark segment command indicates an ending point for the voice message segment in the voice message. An action command from the telephonic device is received and an action based on the action command for the voice message segment is performed. The voice message segment is a portion of the voice message determined based on the indicated beginning point of the voice message segment and the indicated ending point of the voice message segment in the voice message.

    Abstract: A method and voice communicator to provide a voice communication is described. The method may include identifying text to be communicated and automatically processing the text to generate an audio equivalent of the text. For example, the text may be scraped from a web page. The method may include identifying an intended recipient of the audio equivalent and thereafter communicating the audio equivalent as a telephone communication (e.g., a voice mail message in a voice mailbox). Thus, identifying the intended recipient may include requesting a telephone number of a sender (caller) of the voice communication. In an embodiment, the method comprises monitoring selection by a user of a contact list available on the voice communicator wherein the contact list includes a plurality of recipient names and their associated telephone numbers. The audio equivalent is communicated to the recipient device over, for example, PSTN or VoIP network.

    Abstract translation: 描述了提供语音通信的方法和语音通信器。 该方法可以包括识别要传达的文本并且自动处理文本以生成文本的音频等同物。 例如,文本可能会从网页上刮下来。 该方法可以包括识别音频等同物的预期接收者,然后将电话等效信号作为电话通信(例如,语音信箱中的语音邮件消息)传送。 因此,识别预期的接收者可以包括请求语音通信的发送者(呼叫者)的电话号码。 在一个实施例中,该方法包括监视用户对语音通信器上可用的联系人列表的选择,其中联系人列表包括多个接收者姓名及其相关联的电话号码。 音频等效物通过例如PSTN或VoIP网络传送到接收者设备。
