9. A system comprising:
memory storing a set of instructions;
one or more processors, coupled to the memory, to perform operations comprising:
initializing, by a mobile computing device, a real-time meeting communication session between a user and one or more other users, wherein a participation of the user in the real-time meeting communication session is to begin via the mobile computing device of the user;
receiving information indicative of the mobile computing device of the user being present at a physical location of a first computing device;
causing the mobile computing device of the user at the physical location of the first computing device to display a user interface element, which when selected allows the participation of the user in the real-time meeting communication session to continue via the first computing device of the user at the physical location of the first computing device;
granting control of the real-time meeting communication session to the first computing device from the mobile computing device of the user at the physical location of the first computing device; and
allowing the user to participate in the real-time meeting communication session at the physical location of the first computing device upon a user selection of the user interface element.
10. The system of claim 9 , the operations further comprising:
receiving, from the mobile computing device, an input corresponding to the selection by the user of the user interface element.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the receiving of the input causes the mobile computing device to participate in the real-time meeting communication session and to enable the mobile computing device to control, over an internet connection with a server, a media system coupled with the first computing device.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the media system comprises a non-smart display, and wherein the first computing device is coupled to the non-smart display.
13. The system of claim 9 , wherein the mobile computing device comprises at least one of a mobile phone, a tablet computer or a laptop computer.
