GRAPHICAL ENVIRONMENT FOR ADDING LIAISON AGENTS TO A COMMUNICATION SESSION

摘要

A communication session is established between users of communication devices. A representation of the users is displayed as part of the communication session. A liaison agent is dynamically added as a party of the communication session. The liaison agent is an application that works on behalf of one or more user during the communication. In response to dynamically adding the liaison agent as a party of the communication system, the displayed representation of the communication session is updated to indicate that the liaison agent has been added to the communication session. The liaison agent can provide a variety of services to a user, such as tracking work product, handling incoming calls, bridging communication sessions, providing web cam services, doing surveys, gathering a roll of a communication session, playing messages, notifying other users of events in the communication session, and/or the like.
