US Patent 10153995 Method and apparatus for effecting web page access in a plurality of media applications

One or more media applications are configured to facilitate Web page access. Such media applications receive a request from a user for access to a Web page. The Web page is retrieved from, for example, one or more Web servers, a file, and so on, and the content of the Web page is displayed within the media application. Display of the Web page content within the media application obviates the need to change applications to view the Web page content. By remaining within the application, a more natural and intuitive technique for inter-user communication is provided.
