Abstract
Systems and techniques facilitate capturing, via a server, a communication between a plurality of participants via computing devices of the participants and utilizing a communication tool associated with the computing devices. The server links the communication to a collaboration thread that is accessible by each participant via a computing device of each participant, where the collaboration thread includes a container object that provides access to stored content associated with each communication linked to the collaboration thread. The server further notifies each participant of the collaboration thread including an indication that the collaboration thread has been revised based upon the linking of the communication to the collaboration thread.
