Disclosed is a system and method for an interactive communication experience on mobile devices. In general, the present disclosure discusses dynamically manipulating or modifying graphic user representations during an electronic communication. The modification or manipulation of these graphic user representations enables users to convey nuances of mood and feelings rather than being confined to conveying them through conventional communications, including text, images, video, or selecting an appropriate emoticon or avatar from a palette of predetermined emoticons or avatars.

A computing system has multiple endpoint computing devices in local environments to receive verbal requests from various users and a central or remote system to process the requests. The remote system generates responses and uses a variety of techniques to determine where and when to return responses audibly to the users. For each request, the remote system understands who is making the request, determines when to provide the response to the user, ascertains where the user is when it is time to deliver the response, discovers which of the endpoint devices are available to deliver the response, and evaluates which of the available devices is best to deliver the response. The system then delivers the response to the best endpoint device for audible emission or other form of presentation to the user.

The techniques disclosed herein provide systems that provides delegation for unavailable participants that are mentioned in a communication session, such as a channel, chat session, email thread, meeting chat, etc. When a system detects that a person, also referred to herein as a primary participant, is mentioned in a message, e.g., an @mention or @name is detected, and the system detects that the mentioned person has set an out-of-office reply or otherwise indicated an unavailable status, the system automatically identifies a delegate and packages the immediate message including @name and the message thread including the immediate message, and sends the packaged communications to the delegate. Permissions are also modified so that a computer associated with the delegate can display messages of the thread and send messages to the thread on behalf of mentioned person. When the delegate responds, the system directs the response to reply to the main thread.

A system and method for dynamically transforming email signatures. A method includes: receiving an email from an email client prior to delivery to an intended recipient, the email including an original signature; analyzing the email to obtain information associated with the intended recipient of the email; predicting a preferred language of the intended recipient based on the information; converting the original signature to a revised signature, wherein the revised signature utilizes the preferred language; and forwarding the email with the revised signature to the intended recipient.

A method of transmitting information, in which the message that a sender or primary user wants to send is associated with a code. The message is stored in a database, and the code is encoded and transformed into a sound signal that can be transmitted via any broadcasting channel. An electronic device in use by the recipient or end user is equipped with specific application software and is able to receive the sound signal, decode it to obtain the code and, having the code, obtain the message related to the code.
