Abstract:
1. A method of synchronizing and presenting a plurality of media on a terminal, comprising: (a) providing a plurality of media, (b) providing a repository for said plurality of media, (c) providing a terminal which is able to present said plurality of media, (d) providing a plurality of segments within said plurality of media, (e) providing a plurality of nodes operable to associate one or more segments in the plurality of media, each segment in the plurality of media operable to be associated with more than one node in the plurality of nodes, a node with associated one or more segments forming a hub-target structure in which segments linked to a common node are capable of being presented simultaneously, (g) providing a repository controller operable to send simultaneously said segments related by said nodes to said terminal, said terminal further operable to present said segments simultaneously; providing an input device for specifying a timekeeper media selected from said plurality of media, said repository controller operable to: wherein said active segment in the timekeeper media being read triggers a synchronization event propagated to said subset of segments linked to said subset of nodes and a user is allowed to experience said subset of segments associated with said active segment as said timekeeper media is presented.
