Annotating Contextual Workspaces

An apparatus comprising instructions embodied on a tangible, non-transitory computer-readable media, the instructions operable when executed to cause a computing system to perform operations comprising:

• generating a first virtual workspace viewable by a user on a graphical user interface, the virtual workspace comprising a plurality of workspace modules comprising first data aggregated from one or more data objects;
• determining the aggregated data is semantically proximate aggregated data in a second virtual workspace;
• identifying user annotations assigned to the semantically-proximate aggregated data;
• and
• presenting the user annotations in the first virtual workplace viewable by the user.

A computing system, comprising

• one or more memory modules;
• one or more processors;
• a graphical user interface;
• and
• a contextual services module stored on one or more of the memory modules, the contextual services module operable when executed with the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
• generating a first virtual workspace viewable by a user on a graphical user interface, the virtual workspace comprising a plurality of workspace modules comprising first data aggregated from one or more data objects;
• determining the aggregated data is semantically proximate aggregated data in a second virtual workspace;
• identifying user annotations assigned to the semantically-proximate aggregated data;
• and
• presenting the user annotations in the first virtual workplace viewable by the user.
