Abstract

A computer-implemented method for communicating and collecting data across multiple applications through a single user engagement application includes displaying multiple applications and a single user engagement application in a single window. Each of the multiple applications includes a user interface and user interface data objects being displayed in the single window. The user engagement application includes a chat user interface and a collection user interface, where the chat user interface displays multiple chat threads and the collection user interface includes multiple collections of saved user interface data objects. The user engagement application is a separate and distinct application from each of the multiple applications. The method includes copying and inserting selected user interface data object into a selected chat thread in the chat user interface and posting the inserted user interface data object to the other users of the selected chat thread.
