COLLABORATIVE COMMUNICATIONS ENVIRONMENT WITH PARTICIPANT FLEXIBILITY

Abstract:

A method includes receiving a user electronic input. The user electronic input is selected from a group consisting of logical rules, queries, and a subject matter. A degree of flexibility that is associated with the user electronic input is received from a user. Participants within an organization are identified based on the received user electronic input and further based on the degree of flexibility. An electronic chat room that includes at least a subset of the identified participants is created.
