ABSTRACT:
A method and system for coordinating media and messaging operations in an information processing system includes the ability for streaming media and messages in an information processing system from a switching mechanism to a plurality of user nodes. The invention receives a plurality of unsynchronized media and messages from said plurality of user nodes in a synchronizer. Instructions of the present invention further control the streaming of media and messages from said switching mechanism to said plurality of user nodes using said synchronizer. Streaming media may include, for example, chat, audio and video elements, video conference transmissions, teleconference transmissions, and combinations of such media elements.
