Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Common Man (commonman123) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Synchronized Browsing Initial Comment: Would be nice that two users of gaim could have a syncrhonized browing, that is, one selects a url in her browser and the other sees the same page in his. Think that this would be a "killer application" use for GAIM!!! Example http://dertandembrowser.mozdev.org/help/onlineDTBhel p.html This could be done in the following way: a) simple way, would have limited utility (problems with cookies, etc.) a button for IE and/or Mozilla that could "funnel" through GAIM from user a to user b the URL to view. "Somehow" GAIM in user b would command user b browser to show the web page to user b. (funnel = transport from a to b via GAIM tunnel) advantage: fast from a->b (so user a has not to upload page to user b); user b could navigate. disadvantage: only simple webs b) intermediate complex "funnel" from user a to user b, a snapshot (image) of what user a sees. (so user a uploads page image to b) advantage: moderately fast to program ? ; no web out of reach disadvantage: no possibility of user b navigation c) full complex "funnel" "full" context/view from user a to b I ignore if/how this could be done. Smartly done could even allow that user a had to upload all to user b (that locally downloads from web images, etc.) In scenario C, this would open the door to "full application sharing" (example a la marratech whiteboard application sharing http://www.marratech.com/userman/pro_40/whiteboard _sharing_windows.html Well, I think it is nice but complex ... Forward looking this wishfull thinking happens ... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2007-04-20 11:00 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 Originator: NO As we are closing this tracker, please submit any feature request that is still valid to http://developer.pidgin.im.
