Abstract: Improved techniques for interacting with media content so as to provide a unified experience of media content across different client devices in a client-server environment are disclosed. Media content may be displayed on first display of a first client device. Using a server computer, a status of the media content may be communicated from the first client device to a second client device. The media content may be displayed on a second display of the second client device, in accordance with the status of the media content from the first client device.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system, method, and/or computer program product for facilitating controlled electronic communication. In various embodiments, controlled electronic communication may occur between clients of two or more users. Controlled electronic communication may be initiated between clients of a primary user and a secondary user when each user is available to begin communication. A controlled communication server handles initiation and communication requests, and stores and determines user availability statuses. In one embodiment, a user may indicate an availability time range for which the user is available to initiate communication. Responsive to a determination that each user associated with a communication session is available, instructions are sent to a client of a user to commence controlled electronic communication.
