Abstract:
1. Computer code embedded in a non-transient computer readable medium and configured to be executed on a communication device couple to a network, the computer code configured to: progressively receive over the network at the communication device voice media associated with one or more conversations; progressively encode voice media created using the communication device, the encoded voice media associated with the one or more conversations; progressively store on the communication device the received voice media associated with the one or more conversations as the voice media is received over the network and as the created voice media associated with the one or more conversations is encoded; select on the communication device one of the one or more conversations as current; selectively render the voice media associated with the selected current conversation for the first time on the communication device in both: (a) a near real-time mode where the received voice media associated with the selected current conversation is progressively rendered as it is received; or (b) a time shifted mode where the received voice media associated with the selected current conversion is rendered from storage at a time after it was received; and progressively transmit the encoded voice media associated with the selected current conversation over the network to one or more remote communication devices as the voice media is created.
