Abstract
Socially provided context-based messaging can include receiving a message content in a messaging system from a user, wherein the content includes objects; matching one or more objects of the message content to socially provided context information, which the socially provided context information is information relevant to an object obtained from a social network to which the user belongs; and displaying the socially provided context information with the message content for a recipient user to receive.
Claims18
A computer-implemented method within a matching computer hardware system, comprising:
- receiving, from a sender, message content;
- breaking down the content into at least one object;
- matching the at least one object with previously-stored, socially-provided context information;
- providing, to an augmentative and alternative communication (AAC)-enabled client application of a user, the message content and the socially-provided content information, wherein
- the AAC-enabled client application is configured to display the message content along with the socially-provided context information, and
- the socially-provided context information is information relevant to an object within the content and provided by members of a social network to which the sender providing the message content belongs.
A matching computer hardware system, comprising:
- a hardware processor configured to initiate the following executable operations:
- receiving, from a sender, message content;
- breaking down the content into at least one object;
- matching the at least one object with previously-stored, socially-provided context information;
- providing, to an augmentative and alternative communication (AAC)-enabled client application of a user, the message content and the socially-provided content information, wherein
- the AAC-enabled client application is configured to display the message content along with the socially-provided context information, and
- the socially-provided context information is information relevant to an object within the content and provided by members of a social network to which the sender providing the message content belongs.
A computer program product, comprising:
- a hardware storage device having computer usable program code stored therein,
- the computer usable program code, which when executed by a matching computer hardware system, causes the matching computer hardware system to perform:
- receiving, from a sender, message content;
- breaking down the content into at least one object;
- matching the at least one object with previously-stored, socially-provided context information;
- providing, to an augmentative and alternative communication (AAC)-enabled client application of a user, the message content and the socially-provided content information, wherein
- the AAC-enabled client application is configured to display the message content along with the socially-provided context information, and
- the socially-provided context information is information relevant to an object within the content and provided by members of a social network to which the sender providing the message content belongs.
