Patent attributes
A computing device, method, and computer-readable medium storing instructions for determining user availability for one or more messaging applications are provided. For example, the computing device includes a processor for receiving user activity information from a client device including system interaction information and scheduled activity information for a user of the client device. The system interaction information includes information related to the user's current interaction with applications in the distributed workspace and the scheduled activity information includes information pulled from, for example, a calendar and/or scheduling application associated with the user. The processor processes the user activity information to determine a current user status for the user and output the current user status for the user of the client device to additional users of the one or more messaging applications. Based upon the current user status, messages from additional users of the messaging applications are filtered appropriately.
