Abstract
A document system tracks activity within comment threads associated with portions of a stored document. When activity is detected within the document, the document system generates a corresponding notification for display by a client device within a notification interface. The notification interface displays one or more notifications, each associated with activity in documents stored by the document system, and orders the notifications by document, by date, by filter, or any other suitable factor. The user may assign a priority to each document or folder such that notifications associated with documents or folders with a higher priority are displayed before those associated with a lower priority. The notifications may include portions of comment threads, and a user can reply to a comment thread via a response element of the notification interface. The user's reply is incorporated into the comment thread and stored by the document system.
