Cross-platform managed message exchange
Software is executed on a wireless device for presenting a response aggregation drawn upon a message having at least two desired recipients. The software of presenting at least two message-structure item questions via the wireless device and receives input requesting response aggregation drawn upon the message having at least two desired recipients and transmits the message to at least one of the at least two desired recipients using the wireless device.
1. A method comprising:
accepting, via a wireless device, input requesting response aggregation drawn upon a managed message having at least two desired recipients, the input concerning attributes of at least one message-structure item of the managed message;
in response to accepting the input, creating the managed message based on the attributes of the at least one message-structure item, the at least one message-structure item comprising at least one response option;
detecting a device capability of a device associated with at least one of the at least two desired recipients via communication with the device;
retrieving a device-capability-specific file set appropriate to the detected device capability; and
formulating the managed message into a device-capability-specific message based on the device-capability-specific file set.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said accepting input requesting response aggregation comprises accepting user input defining the at least two desired recipients via entry of at least one desired-recipient item.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein said accepting input defining the at least two desired recipients via entry of at least one desired-recipient item comprises:
accepting input defining the at least two desired recipients via entry of at least one of a desired-recipient name, a desired-recipient phone number, a desired-recipient email address, a choice of a group name, and a choice of a contact.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one message-structure item further comprises at least one of: a subject; an associated ability to allow at least one desired recipient to see at least one other of the at least two desired recipients; a message body; at least one yes-no-type answer question; at least one numeric-response-type answer question; at least one textual-response-type answer question; at least one multiple-choice-response-type answer question; at least one meeting date which can include either or both a day and a time; at least one meeting location; at least one meeting RSVP request; at least one event descriptor wherein the event descriptor can include, but is not limited to, a party, a breakfast, a lunch, a dinner, a movie, a game, a concert, or a miscellaneous occurrence; at least one event location; and at least one event RSVP request.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the accepting input comprises means for accepting at least one of voice, or alphanumeric, or digital input.
6. A system comprising:
means for accepting, via a wireless device, input requesting response aggregation drawn upon a managed message having at least two desired recipients, the input concerning attributes of at least one message-structure item of the managed message;
means for creating the managed message based on the attributes of the at least one message-structure item, the at least one message-structure item comprising at least one response option;
means for detecting a device capability of a device associated with at least one of the at least two desired recipients via communication with the device;
means for retrieving a device-capability-specific file set appropriate to the detected device capability; and
means for formulating the managed message into a device-capability-specific message based on the device-capability-specific file set.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein said means for accepting input requesting response aggregation comprises means for accepting user input defining the at least two desired recipients via entry of at least one desired-recipient item.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein said means for accepting input defining the at least two desired recipients via entry of at least one desired-recipient item comprises means for accepting input defining the at least two desired recipients via entry of at least one of a desired-recipient name, a desired-recipient phone number, a desired-recipient email address, a choice of a group name, and a choice of a contact.
9. The system of claim 6 , wherein the at least one message-structure item further comprises at least one of: a subject; an associated ability to allow at least one desired recipient to see at least one other of the at least two desired recipients; a message body; at least one yes-no-type answer question; at least one numeric-response-type answer question; at least one textual-response-type answer question; at least one multiple-choice-response-type answer question; at least one meeting date which can include either or both a day and a time; at least one meeting location; at least one meeting RSVP request; at least one event descriptor wherein the event descriptor can include, but is not limited to, a party, a breakfast, a lunch, a dinner, a movie, a game, a concert, or a miscellaneous occurrence; at least one event location; and at least one event RSVP request.
10. The system of claim 6 , wherein the means for accepting input comprises means for accepting at least one voice, or alphanumeric, or digital input.
