Abstract

A messaging system identifies a received message as a notification message from a conversation system in a media application. The messaging system obtains rendering information to render a current state of the conversation thread represented by the message. The message system renders the current state of the followed conversation thread, with actuators that provide interactive functionality allowing the user to interact with the conversation thread, in the message viewer of the user's messaging system.
