Patent

CA 2660926

Teachings presented herein provide a method of sharing video content over one or more communication networks. In particular, a first user can initiate a "video push," wherein specified video content is delivered to a second user via a video call. Return video content from the second user is received over the video call. Sending the return video content to the first user allows the first user to observe the second user's reaction to the pushed video content, thereby enhancing the experience of sharing video content for both users. The return video content can be streamed back to the first user in real-time or near real-time, or can be buffered for non real--time return. Thus the outgoing leg of a video call pushes specified video content to a targeted user, and, advantageously, the incoming leg of the video call receives return video capturing the targeted user's reaction to the pushed video.
