1. A computer product comprising:
- computer-executable logic instructions operable to;
generate a selectable option for displaying a list of virtual collaboration facilities associated with a user;
detect selection of the option;
generate a list of virtual collaboration facilities associated with a user when the option is selected;
detect selection of one of the virtual collaboration facilities on the list; and
request information associated with one of the virtual collaboration facilities when the one of the virtual collaboration facilities is selected.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes generating a list of virtual collaboration facilities associated with an authenticated user, and detecting selection of one of the virtual collaboration facilities on the list. An authenticated user can request a key to be issued to allow an unauthenticated user to gain access to the selected virtual collaboration facility.
