Abstract: The invention includes a method and apparatus for coordinating transfer of information between ones of a plurality of devices including a coordinating device and at least one other device. In one embodiment, a method includes detecting selection of an item available at a first one of the devices, detecting a gesture-based command for the selected item, identifying a second one of the devices based on the gesture-based command and a spatial relationship between the coordinating device and the second one of the devices, and initiating a control message adapted for enabling the first one of the devices to propagate the selected item toward the second one of the devices. The control message is adapted for enabling the first one of the devices to propagate the selected item toward the second one of the devices. The first one of the devices on which the item is available may be the coordinating device or another device.
