Abstract: The invention relates to a computer-implemented method for controlling a collaboration platform on which a communication and collaboration application (COL_APP) (1) is ran that allows a number of users (a, b, c, d, e) of a specified user group to communicate and collaborate on a specific topic in a session (3) in which the user group is participating. Contributions from individual users (a, b, c, d, e) are collected and displayed in a thread as information segments (6). The method has the following steps: receiving a request of a read confirmation by a first user (a) of the specified user group of the session (3), said request of the read confirmation relating to a thread (5) information segment (6) provided with a tag by the first user (a), wherein the tag comprises a specified character string that identifies at least one second user (b) from which the first user (a) requests the read confirmation for the information segment (6) provided with the tag; identifying the at least one second user (b) in a database of the COL_APP; transmitting a message to the at least one second user (b), said message containing the information segment (6); receiving a confirmation message from the second user (b) that the user has read the message containing the information segment (6); and assigning a read confirmation to the information segment (6) as soon as the at least one second user (b) has read the message. The method additionally has the step of aggregating metadata relating to the request of the read confirmation by means of the first user (a) and the confirmation message from the second user (b), and the information on the read confirmation is imparted to the first user (a) by providing the metadata, in particular by displaying the metadata in a workflow-based display.

Abstract: Implementing and applying a database with radio station information that is gathered from client devices as stations become available to a plurality of users (i.e., "crowd sourced" radio station information) and allowing for a client device to download only the radio station information that is pertinent to the travel route of the user and/or radio station selection criteria associated with the client device or the user. Radio station information can be rendered via a graphical interface of a client device to allow the user to informatively select a new radio station, either before or as a current radio signal degrades to the point of being unusable. Radio station information may be rendered to cause the user's terrestrial radio to tune to a new station.
