Abstract

See full text

A conference organizer uses conference software to define a conference and to store conference information, including a list of individuals attending the conference. The software assigns each individual a personal proxy with storage space for information to be shared. Responsive to input from the individuals, the software organizes the individuals into groups, such as interest-based groups and lists of “buddies.” Messages and can then be directed between individuals or broadcast to groups buddy groups via their respective proxies. The use of proxies allows attendees to send messages to one another and to receive messages from one another without divulging their primary email addresses. The proxy storage also allows individuals to store and selectively share textual information, video information, digital pictures, and audio information.
