A method for processing social information comprises: acquiring social information sent by an interactive object (101); determining whether a reply control is displayed according to the social information (102); if it is determined that the reply control is displayed, then displaying the social information and the reply control in a message list (103); and sending reply information to the interactive object in response to a user operation for the reply control (104).

Methods and devices related to a single message management platform are described. In an example, a method can include receiving a first message at a first processing resource via a first application, receiving a second message at the first processing resource via a second application, receiving the first message and the second message at a memory, storing the first message and the second message in the memory, receiving a command to open a single message management platform, receiving the first message and the second message at the single message management platform, and organizing the first message and the second message at the single message management platform.

Techniques for enhancing group communication on a device are described. A method may include presenting a message in a message portion of a user interface (UI) for a group communication application executing on a first device, where the group communication application communicates messages among multiple devices. The method may further include monitoring an input component for the first device and detecting a first control directive from the input component. The first control directive may select a message displayed in the message portion of the user interface. The method may further include performing a pin operation on the selected message; and presenting the pinned message in a banner portion of the UL Other embodiments are described and claimed.

A method for more efficient structural parsing of binary representations of text based objects within a data distribution system. Clients subscribe to a topic maintained by the data distribution system server that publishers can publish to. Clients receive an original binary representation of a text based object describing the state of the topic to which the client is subscribed. In response to the state of the topic changing at the data distribution system server, clients receive a binary delta representing the change of the state of the topic. Based on the received binary representation and the binary delta, clients calculate an updated binary representation of the text based object. Using the original binary representation, the updated binary representation, and the binary delta, the client generates a structural delta representing the structural differences between data structures of the original text based object and data structures of the updated text based object.

A system that can coordinate user interface formats having customized threads comprising messages from a common thread. Each client device can be managed by a data structure that defines thread containers, where individual thread containers define threads and topics for each thread. Each thread can also be associated with unique groups of messages. The data structure can cause each client computer to display different user interface formats, with each format showing different threads for each user. Users engaged in a chat on a parent thread can split the parent thread into multiple child threads, that can each be associated with unique topics. The system can then associate individual messages of the parent thread with each child thread. The system provides more granular control of user interface formats to allow users to separate messages of high-priority topics.

Some embodiments comprise integrating information from a social network into a multi-tenant database system. A plurality of information from the social network is retrieved, using a processor and a network interface of a server computer in the multi-tenant database system, wherein the plurality of information is associated with a message transmitted using the social network. Metadata related to the transmitted message is generated, using the processor. A conversation object is generated, using the processor, based on the plurality of information associated with the transmitted message and the metadata related to the transmitted message. The conversation object is then stored in an entity in the multi-tenant database system, using the processor of the server computer.
