Video integration

A system for video chat integration into dynamic content comprising:

• at least one processor operatively connected to a memory;
• a display management component executed by the at least one processor and configured to render dynamic content for a display screen;
• a communication component executed by the at least one processor and configured to connect to a communication network to access web-based content;
• and
• a video chat integration component executed by the at least one processor and configured to:
• initiate a connection to a video chat service provider via the communication component;
• receive video chat content from the video chat service provider;
• and
• integrate a video chat object representative of the video chat content into the dynamic content at least in part by:
• allocating a first portion of the display screen to the dynamic content;
• modifying the dynamic content to fit within the first portion of the display screen;
• allocating a second portion of the display screen to the video chat object;
• and
• rendering the video chat object in the second portion of the display screen.

A computer implemented method for integrating video chat into dynamic content comprising:

• rendering, via a display management component executed by at least one processor, dynamic content for a display screen;
• connecting, via a communication component executed by the at least one processor, to a communication network to access web-based content;
• initiating, by a video chat integration component executed by the at least one processor, a connection to a video chat service provider via the communication component;
• receiving, by the video integration component, video chat content from the video chat service provider;
• and
• integrating, by the video chat integration component, a video chat object representative of the video chat content into the dynamic content, wherein integrating the video chat object includes:
• allocating a first portion of the display screen to the dynamic content;
• modifying the dynamic content to fit within the first portion of the display screen;
• allocating a second portion of the display screen to the video chat object;
• and
• rendering the video chat object in the second portion of the display screen.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-readable signals stored thereon that define instructions that, as a result of being executed by a computer, instruct the computer to perform a computer implemented method for integrating video chat into dynamic content, the method comprising:

• rendering dynamic content for a display screen;
• connecting to a communication network to access web-based content;
• initiating a connection to a video chat service provider via the communication component;
• receiving video chat content from the video chat service provider;
• integrating a video chat object representative of the video chat content into the dynamic content, wherein integrating the video chat object includes:
• allocating a first portion of the display screen to the dynamic content;
• modifying the dynamic content to fit within the first portion of the display screen;
• allocating a second portion of the display screen to the video chat object;
• and
• rendering the video chat object in the second portion of the display screen.
