TECHNIQUES FOR INTEGRATING NOTE-TAKING AND MULTIMEDIA INFORMATION

Techniques to improve a user's note-taking experience. While taking notes for a presentation, a user can request one or more portions of information recorded during the presentation to be inserted into the user's notes document. User interfaces are provided that enable a user to specify which portions of the recorded information are to be inserted into the user's notes document. User information requests that cannot be immediately processed are stored or cached in the notes document for later processing. These cached requests are processed and the requested information inserted into the user's notes document at a later time.
