Abstract
In one implementation, endpoint computing devices communicate using one or more instant messages. A user interface of an endpoint receives text input from a user for an instant message. The endpoint generates a trigger command in response to the instant message. A camera captures an image in response to the trigger command. The image may depict the user that entered the text input but other images are possible. The endpoint sends the image with the instant message to a recipient of the instant message.
