There is disclosed a system and method for both initiating and perpetuating IP or non-IP audio calls with data collaboration sessions over a network, such as the Internet (24). This is accomplished by providing an identifying field marking an audio call between caller to intended recipient. This field is then stored as an identifying marker in a data collaboration server (44), identifying a conversation which only ends when the audio call ends. Thus, the existence of the data collaboration session is not dependent on actual connection of the recipients to the data collaboration server (44) rather it exists so long as the audio link is maintained. |
