Techniques are described herein for normalizing the recipient style of electronic messages while preserving the discernible intent of the sender. Given an electronic message or series of messages with varying visual styles applied to message text and other content, the electronic message may be transformed with a normalized and consistent formatting style that is more pleasing to the recipient, while preserving the sender's discernible intent in stylizing the message.

Normalizing message style while preserving intent

A method for providing linked note-taking includes receiving a notification from an online presentation service presenting a document that a note file relating to the document has been created in a client application, requesting at least a portion of the document and document information from the online presentation service, receiving, from the online presentation service, the at least a portion of the document and document information retrieved from a client application where the document resides, receiving a note within the note file and associating the note with at least a portion of the document and document information without locally opening the document in the client application.

System and method for providing linked note-taking

Technologies are described for modification of conversation presentation for enhanced user experience. Parts of the conversation may be detected and analyzed for their properties such as who sent a message, who received, when, was anyone left out from or added to the conversation, etc. The extracted properties and analyzed information may then be used to reverse a chronological order of the conversation and present it using interactive features such as collapsing and expanding parts of the presented information, providing a summary, removing unnecessary content, and comparable features.

Conversation modification for enhanced user interaction

A notebook component within a note-taking application is utilized as a centralized mechanism for recording notations and providing documentation related to a particular meeting. The meeting participants are provided with centralized access to the notebook component and thus are able to update the notebook record of the meeting collaboratively and in real time. In addition to user-driven updates, updates may also be generated on an automatic or semi-automatic basis. Updates may be made before, during or after the actual meeting. Updates may originate from an application data source outside of the note-taking application itself.

Notebook driven accumulation of meeting documentation and notations

Notes may be shared in an online meeting with online meeting attendees through a software application associated with organizing an online meeting, for example, online meeting software, calendaring software, note-taking software, or the like. Notes may be created and/or shared before, during, and/or after the online meeting by meeting attendees. Meeting attendees may be notified when notes are shared for the online meeting. Notes may be shared with items of the software application associated with organizing the online meeting. For example, notes may be shared in online meeting software with the online meeting. Notes may be shared among items of different software applications, for example, notes shared in the online meeting software may be automatically shared with a calendar item in a calendaring software application.
