Abstract

Various embodiments of the present technology provide an online and/or offline meeting system that utilizes a “scene” as a collaboration context and/or for collecting and grouping related text and multimedia based messages exchanged in discussions, and causes the related texts and/or messages to be presented to participants of an online and/or offline meeting in a cinematic way. When an online meeting is over and the meeting session is ended, participants can still make offline communications using the scene as the collaboration context. Further, the present technology improves user experience in viewing or annotating non-text based content in a chat session.
