Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for collaboration and view sharing between users when performing editing operations over a shared document. A first portion of a shared document is displayed to a first user in a user interface of a first instance of a collaboration application of a first user. The displayed first portion comprises a first location of the first user within the shared document. In the user interface, an indication specifying a relative locational direction from the first location towards a second location of a second user within the shared document is provided. A second portion of the shared document is being displayed to the second user through a second instance of the collaboration application during a conference call between a set of users, where the displayed second portion includes the second location of the second user within the shared document.
