Patent number: 10027609Abstract: A system and method are described for allowing users to forward a media content experience, such as an Internet site, to another computing device. The system may allow the user to select individual portions and elements of the site for forwarding, to customize the level and type of experience being forwarded. The selection of portions and elements may be made based on the capabilities of the other computing device, and the forwarding may be simultaneously made to multiple other devices, each with potentially different combinations of the portions and elements of the site. In some embodiments, a text message link service may be offered by a content ingestion computing device, whereby a user may simply text an address of a site to be forwarded, and in response the user may receive a text message containing a link to the content ingestion computing device with a parameter identifying the site to be forwarded.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2014Date of Patent: July 17, 2018Assignee: Comcast Cable Communications, LLCInventors: Adam Hertz, Michael A.
