Method and electronic device for content sharing
View Patent ↗Methods and apparatus for enabling content interaction at a connected electronic device re described. An example method includes establishing a web protocol session between a web server executing on a first electronic user device and a client executing on a second electronic user device via a direct radio frequency connection between the first electronic user device and the second electronic user device, wherein the first electronic user device and the second electronic user device are associated with a same user, the establishing including sending an open request from the client to the web server; and transmitting a response to the open request from the web server to the client, the response including a universal resource identifier identifying a location of content for presenting, on the second electronic device, the application executing on the first electronic device.
1. A method comprising:
establishing a web protocol session between a web server executing on a first electronic user device and a client executing on a second electronic user device via a direct radio frequency connection between the first electronic user device and the second electronic user device, wherein the first electronic user device and the second electronic user device are associated with a same user, the establishing including sending an open request from the client to the web server;
after establishing the web protocol session, presenting an application on the first electronic user device;
in response to user input requesting that presentation of the application be moved from the first electronic user device to the second electronic device, transmitting a response to the open request from the web server to the client, the response including a universal resource identifier identifying a location of content for presenting, on the second electronic device, the application executing on the first electronic device.
2. A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the application is an electronic mail application.
3. A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the open request is a hypertext transport protocol request.
4. A method as defined in claim 1 , further comprising displaying a user interface control associated with presentation of the application on the first electronic device, the user interface control selectable to provide the user input requesting that presentation of the application be moved from the first electronic device to the second electronic device.
5. A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the open request is at least one of an open GET or a long-polling request message.
6. A method as defined in claim 1 , further comprising changing presentation of the application for presentation on the second electronic device based on capabilities of the second electronic device.
7. A method as defined in claim 1 , further comprising establishing a second web protocol session between a web server executing on the first electronic user device and a second client executing on a third electronic user device, the establishing the second protocol session including sending a second open request from the second client to the web server.
8. A first electronic user device comprising:
a display;
a processor coupled to the display and configured to:
establish a web protocol session between a web server executing on the first electronic user device and a client executing on a second electronic user device via a direct radio frequency connection between the first electronic user device and the second electronic user device, wherein the first electronic user device and the second electronic user device are associated with a same user, the establishing including sending an open request from the client to the web server;
after establishing the web protocol session, presenting an application on the first electronic user device;
in response to user input requesting that presentation of the application be moved from the first electronic user device to the second electronic device, transmitting a response to the open request from the web server to the client, the response including a universal resource identifier identifying a location of content for presenting, on the second electronic device, the application executing on the first electronic device.
9. A first electronic user device as defined in claim 8 , wherein the application is an electronic mail application.
10. A first electronic user device as defined in claim 8 , wherein the open request is a hypertext transport protocol request.
11. A first electronic user device as defined in claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to display a user interface control associated with presentation of the application on the first electronic device, the user interface control selectable to provide the user input requesting that presentation of the application be moved from the first electronic device to the second electronic device.
12. A first electronic user device as defined in claim 8 , wherein the open request is at least one of an open GET or a long-polling request message.
13. A method as defined in claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to change presentation of the application for presentation on the second electronic device based on capabilities of the second electronic device.
14. A first electronic user device as defined in claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to establish a second web protocol session between a web server executing on the first electronic user device and a second client executing on a third electronic user device, the establishing the second protocol session including sending a second open request from the second client to the web server.
15. A computer readable storage device comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a first electronic user device to at least:
establish a web protocol session between a web server executing on the first electronic user device and a client executing on a second electronic user device via a direct radio frequency connection between the first electronic user device and the second electronic user device, wherein the first electronic user device and the second electronic user device are associated with a same user, the establishing including sending an open request from the client to the web server;
after establishing the web protocol session, present an application on the first electronic user device;
in response to user input requesting that presentation of the application be moved from the first electronic user device to the second electronic device, transmit a response to the open request from the web server to the client, the response including a universal resource identifier identifying a location of content for presenting, on the second electronic device, the application executing on the first electronic device.
16. A computer readable storage device as defined in claim 15 , wherein the application is an electronic mail application.
17. A computer readable storage device as defined in claim 15 , wherein the open request is a hypertext transport protocol request.
18. A computer readable storage device as defined in claim 15 , wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the first electronic user device to display a user interface control associated with presentation of the application on the first electronic device, the user interface control selectable to provide the user input requesting that presentation of the application be moved from the first electronic device to the second electronic device.
19. A computer readable storage device as defined in claim 15 , wherein the open request is at least one of an open GET or a long-polling request message.
20. A computer readable storage device as defined in claim 15 , wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the first electronic user device to change presentation of the application for presentation on the second electronic device based on capabilities of the second electronic device.
