Abstract
Multiuser communication systems are presented. The disclosed systems include a database of communication room objects and a communication room management server. The management server can instantiate one or more of the room objects as a persistent meeting room through which users can share multimedia content. The meeting room can remain persistent independent of user participation. The system can further include a display manager capable of configuring a display of a user device into multiple display regions where each display region can render one or more types of multimedia room content. A user can, with a single gesture, rearrange the display regions under governance of the display manager.
