1. A computer-implemented method for providing contextually relevant data to participants of an electronic communication, comprising:
- establishing a screen sharing session between a first participant and a second participant;
determining contextual relevance data, using one or more rules, between shared contents of the screen sharing session, the participants, and external data related to at least one of the participants, where the contextual relevance data includes data related to a contextual relationship between a result of the scan of the screen sharing session and at least one of the first and second participants, and a modification of the shared contents and data related to a contextual relationship between a result of the scan of the screen sharing session and at least one of the first and second participants;
augmenting the screen sharing session to display first participant augmented information which includes both the shared contents and contextual relevance data that is relevant to the first participant;
augmenting the screen sharing session on a computer screen of the second participant to display second participant augmented information which includes both the shared contents and contextual relevance data that is relevant to the second participant and different than the contextual relevance data that is relevant to the first participant; and
displaying at a location on a computer screen of the first participant, the contextual relevance data that is relevant to the second participant,wherein the location of the displayed contextual relevance data is determined by the one or more rules.

13. A computer-implemented method for determining contextual relevance between shared content of an interactive communication, participants of the interactive communication, and external data related to the participants, the method comprising:
-
determining a type of content object from the shared content; communicating with a data source and using one or more rules to identify contextual relevance data that is contextually relevant to at least one of the participants and a type of content object, the contextual relevance data including data related to a contextual relationship between a result of a scan of a screen sharing session and the at least one of the participants, and a modification of the shared content; outputting the contextual relevance data from the data source to an electronic display for each of the participants; and simultaneously displaying, at a location on the electronic display of at least one participant, both contextual relevance data that is relevant to the at least one participant and contextual relevance data that is relevant to another participant, wherein the contextual relevance data that is relevant to the at least one participant is different than the contextual relevance data that is relevant to the another participant, wherein the location of the displayed contextual relevance data is determined by the one or more rules. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)
