Abstract

A cloud computing system identifies opportunities for users to collaborate on a file. Collaboration opportunities are identified based on similarity of separate files that different users are associated with, and on relationships or similarities between the different users. If users associated with the separate files agree to collaborate, the users may be placed in a single editing session regarding a file having content from at least one of the separate files.
