Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented process comprising:
- managing a first version of shared collaborative content on a server system including hardware;
broadcasting first collaborative content based on said first version of said shared collaborative content to users of client systems to yield first delivered collaborative content for each of said client systems through respective web browsers;
modifying, by users using respective Web browsers, contents of first version of said shared collaborative content to yield updated documents;
wherein said modifying is performed using said Web browsers but without using plugins for said Web browsers;
receiving from one of said client systems a client request to update its first delivered collaborative content; and
responding to said client request by;
updating said shared collaborative content to yield a second version of said shared collaborative content, andbroadcasting second collaborative content based on said second version of said shared collaborative content to said client systems so that each of said client systems receives second delivered collaborative content, said second delivered collaborative content being the same for all of said clients.
