ABSTRACT:
Prior to the intermediate host conference, an Intermediate Host Conferencing Module communicates a library of digital objects and the Intermediate Host Conferencing Module to an intermediate host communications device(s). During the conference, the intermediate host-resident Intermediate Host Conferencing Module receives a synchronization command and instructs the intermediate host communications device to communicate a synchronized object with presentation instructions to a downstream participant communications device and to present the synchronized object to the intermediate host communications device. Furthermore, the participant communications devices may communicate a synchronization acknowledgment back to the Intermediate Host Conferencing Module. The synchronization confirmation acknowledges a successful presentation of the synchronized object to the intermediate host communications device and/or to at least one of the downstream participant communications devices.
