Conference method and conference system crossing instant messaging (IM) system

Abstract

The invention provides a multi-party conference scheme crossing an instant messaging (IM) system at the scene with an IM Agent and provides a set of basic management functions required by a multi-party conference system. A conference method crossing the IM system includes that: an instant messaging agent receives a conference building request sent by conference building users, builds a conference room, generates a conference account number list and adds user account numbers of the conference building users on each IM system in the conference account number list; invitation requests containing account numbers of invited users and sent by the conference building users are received; and the instant messaging agent uses the IM system user account numbers of the log-in conference building users to send invitation requests corresponding to an IM system information format to the invited users. In the method and the system, the conference building users build the conference room through the instant messaging agent and achieve conference information communication between the users on different IM systems through transmitting of the instant messaging agent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of instant communication, in particular to a conference method and system across IM systems. Background technique [0002] Currently, there are many instant messaging (Instant Messenger, IM) systems on the Internet, such as: Microsoft Service Network (MSN), ICQ, Yahoo Messager, QQ etc. These IM systems are all independent closed systems. In order to contact friends in different IM systems, some users need to register accounts in these systems separately, which causes these users to start the client software for different IM systems when they are in contact, which is quite troublesome to use. . Especially when the user needs to have a meeting with friends in different systems on the same topic, there is basically no way to realize it except by repeatedly inputting relevant content in the clients of multiple systems. [0003] Aiming at the above situation, a new IM Agent product has appeared on the market. This produc...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the existing IMAgent products only realize the unified proxy access of multiple IM systems on a certain terminal application, but fail to provide the ability of multi-party conferences across IM systems
