ABSTRACT:
Audiovisual images from independent providers on the Internet are exhibited as part of an updating, shared, collaboratively-produced multimedia exhibition system. Each individual user can choose to include or exclude certain content by personalizing his collection of images, by optionally rating each picture. Groups of users can share their collections amongst themselves. Content providers on the internet can allow visitors to include their audivisual information by adding a single button. The server keeps profile information for each user and for the groups to which the user belongs.
