8 . An information handling system comprising:

one or more processors;

a memory coupled to at least one of the processors;

a set of computer program instructions stored in the memory and executed by at least one of the processors in order to perform actions of:

invoking a conferencing session over a computer network between a first user utilizing a headset and one or more second users;

detecting an audible interruption from a third user proximate to the first user, wherein the headset inhibits the first user from detecting the audible interruption;

providing an interruption notification to the first user in response to determining that the audible interruption matches at least one of a set of notification triggers; and

capturing a dialog between the one or more second users in the conferencing session in response to the first user accepting the interruption notification.

9 . The information handling system of claim 8 wherein the processors perform additional actions comprising:

creating an information record of the dialog between the one or more second users;

receiving an interruption completed indication from the first user indicating that the first user is finished conversing with the third user; and

providing the information record to the first user in response to receiving the interruption completed indication.

10 . The information handling system of claim 9 wherein the information record is provided to the first user in a format selected from the group consisting of an audio format and a visual format.

11 . The information handling system of claim 8 wherein the processors perform additional actions comprising:

initiating a training mode; and

in response to initiating the training mode, the processors perform additional actions comprising:

detecting a different audible interruption;

sending a different interruption notification to the first user;

in response to the first user accepting the different interruption notification, adding a new notification trigger corresponding to the different audible interruption to the set of notification triggers; and

in response to the first user rejecting the different interruption notification, adding a do not interrupt entry to a set of do not interrupt entries, wherein each of the set of do not interrupt entries indicate not to interrupt the first user on a subsequent audible interruption matching one of the set of the do not interrupt entries.

12 . The information handling system of claim 11 wherein the new notification trigger is an audio recording of the third user.

13 . The information handling system of claim 8 wherein the interrupt notification provided to the first user identifies the third user and comprises one or more words from the audible interruption.

14 . The information handling system of claim 8 wherein the interruption notification is customizable by the first user for each of the set of notification triggers

15 . A computer program product stored in a computer readable storage medium, comprising computer program code that, when executed by an information handling system, causes the information handling system to perform actions comprising:

invoking a conferencing session over a computer network between a first user utilizing a headset and one or more second users;

detecting an audible interruption from a third user proximate to the first user, wherein the headset inhibits the first user from detecting the audible interruption;

providing an interruption notification to the first user in response to determining that the audible interruption matches at least one of a set of notification triggers; and

capturing a dialog between the one or more second users in the conferencing session in response to the first user accepting the interruption notification.

16 . The computer program product of claim 15 wherein the information handling system performs further actions comprising:

creating an information record of the dialog between the one or more second users;

receiving an interruption completed indication from the first user indicating that the first user is finished conversing with the third user; and

providing the information record to the first user in response to receiving the interruption completed indication.

17 . The computer program product of claim 16 wherein the information record is provided to the first user in a format selected from the group consisting of an audio format and a visual format.

18 . The computer program product of claim 15 wherein the information handling system performs further actions comprising:

initiating a training mode; and

in response to initiating the training mode, the processors perform additional actions comprising:

detecting a different audible interruption;

sending a different interruption notification to the first user;

in response to the first user accepting the different interruption notification, adding a new notification trigger corresponding to the different audible interruption to the set of notification triggers; and

in response to the first user rejecting the different interruption notification, adding a do not interrupt entry to a set of do not interrupt entries, wherein each of the set of do not interrupt entries indicate not to interrupt the first user on a subsequent audible interruption matching one of the set of the do not interrupt entries.

19 . The computer program product of claim 18 wherein the new notification trigger is an audio recording of the third user.

20 . The computer program product of claim 15 wherein the interrupt notification provided to the first user identifies the third user and comprises one or more words from the audible interruption.
