Collaborative workflow through messaging conversations

A computing device comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a communication interface;
• and
• a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing one or more instructions that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to:
• execute a messaging application;
• receive, via the communication interface, a message that is associated with the messaging application;
• responsive to the messaging application opening the message, execute, without user interaction, a second application that outputs an embedded version of a network document for inline display within a section of the message, wherein the second application is different from the messaging application, and wherein one or more versions of the network document are stored on at least one server computing device;
• responsive to receiving user input from a first user to modify the embedded version of the network document within the section of the message, generate a modification to the network document;
• and
• use the communication interface to send to the at least one server computing device via one or more networks, the modification to the network document, wherein sending the modification causes the at least one server computing device to store the modification in a modified version of the network document that is accessible to a second client computing device associated with a second user, the second user being different from the first user.
