Abstract

Systems and methods for virtual interactions are described. One or more users can view or listen to media, react to the media and share such media experience virtually with others. The media experience can take place synchronously, asynchronously or both.

Claims (10)

1. A system for social media interaction, the system comprising:

a server configured to:

a) provide a first video media to a first user through a network;

b) retrieve and store a second video media from the first user, the second video media being commentary on the first video media;

c) multiplex the first video media with the second video media into a multiplexed video media;

d) provide the multiplexed video media to a second user through the network; and

e) retrieve and store a third video media from the second user, the second video media being commentary on the multiplexed video media.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the server is further configured to allow the second user to assign weights to the audio portions of the multiplexed video.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the server is further configured to associate timecodes from the first video media with the second and third video media.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first video media and second video media are displayed in separate user interface windows to the second user.
