A system for providing collaborative moderation and correction of instant messaging session transcripts in an instant messaging session that includes an improved instant messaging client user interface that allows collaborative editing and moderation of an instant messaging session transcript in order to correct for errors. An instant messaging client operates to seek approval of changes to the session transcript during the session, and stores transcript changes such that the modifications are conveniently viewable by all session participants. The instant messaging client can be configured to automatically accept requests to modify the session transcript. Alternatively, the instant messaging client can be configured to explicitly notify and seek approval from all other participants when a participant attempts to make a modification to the session history. The time of each modification, and the identity of the participant making each modification, are stored within the session history.

A computer-based system for collaborative editing of documents has a computer-based control module and computerized workstations. The system has a database connected to the control module that stores a document in the database as linked character objects. Each character object represents one particular character of the document, includes a unique object identifier, and represents a type of the particular character. The character object represents the particular character being linked to a first character object representing a character preceding directly the particular character in the document and to a second character object representing a character following directly the particular character in the document. The control module receives and processes editing commands. The system has a propagation module for transmitting propagation messages to the workstations participating in the collaborative editing of the document, propagation messages including the character objects inserted or deleted in the database.

Apparatus, systems, and methods may operate to detect modifications made to information, the modifications received from a modifying user included in a group of users sharing the information by separately viewing presentations of the information. The presentations may have any number of views, such as a first view and at least a second view. Further actions may include transmitting first view data to enable altering the first view for the modifying user based on the modification made, whether the modification comprises a propagating change or a non-propagating change, and if the modification comprises a propagating change, transmitting second view data to enable altering at least the second view for at least some of the group of users, not including the modifying user, based on the modification. If the change is a non-propagating one, then the activity may include refraining from transmitting the second view data. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.

A first electronic device with a display maintains a consistent output based on concurrent textual edits received at multiple collaborating devices. The first device maintains a directed acyclic graph to represent a textual string concurrently edited by the first device and at least a second device of the multiple collaborating devices.
