Abstract
One embodiment of a system for aggregating and distributing presence information comprises a hosted presence aggregator server. The hosted presence aggregator server receives an update of presence information from a user device and relays the presence information update to another user device, wherein the user devices are part of a federation of user devices controlled by a single user which relay updates in presence status of the single user to one another via the hosted presence aggregator server.
Claims20
A system for aggregating and distributing presence information comprising:
- a hosted presence aggregator server comprising a processor and memory, the hosted presence aggregator server receiving an update of presence status from a user device and relaying the presence status update to another user device, wherein the user devices are part of a federation of user devices controlled by a single user which relay updates in presence status of the single user to one another via the hosted presence aggregator server.
A method for aggregating and distributing presence information comprising:
- receiving an update of presence status from a user device;
- and
- relaying the presence information update to another user device, wherein the user devices are part of a federation of user devices controlled by a single user which relay updates in presence status of the single user to one another.
A computer readable medium having computer instructions for aggregating and distributing presence information, the computer instructions when executed by one or more computers cause the one or more computers to:
- receiving an update of presence status from a user device;
- and
- relaying the presence information update to another user device, wherein the user devices are part of a federation of user devices controlled by a single user which relay updates in presence status of the single user to one another.
