1. A computer-implemented system that facilitates data management, the system including a processing unit executing computer-executable program components stored in memory comprising:

  • a data component that monitors workspace activity of a shared workspace presented on display devices of participants during a collaborative workspace session and accumulates workspace information related to monitored workspace activity of the participants of the collaborative workspace session;

    a search component that links to stored previous workspace information, automatically formulates a search query during the collaborative workspace session based on the workspace information accumulated by the data component and the stored previous workspace information, searches one or more data stores during the collaborative workspace session based on the search query, and obtains data relevant to the participants of the collaborative workspace session;

    a presentation component for selectively presenting the data relevant to the participants during the collaborative workspace session based on the monitored workspace activity of the participants; and

    an inference component that, once the collaborative workspace session is completed;

    uses the workspace information accumulated by the data component during the collaborative workspace session and the data relevant to the participants obtained by the search component to automatically update which participant activities are to be monitored by the data component and which data stores are to be searched by the search component,stores the accumulated workspace information of the completed collaborative workspace session with a link for use during future collaborative workspaces sessions,collects context information related to content and topics of the completed collaborative workspace session, andpasses the context information to an email client of each participant of the completed workspace session to train an email message filter of each email client to automatically tag email messages relevant to the content and topics of the completed collaborative workspace session.
