Systems and methods for virtual interactions

A computer-implemented method of sharing an interactive experience, the method comprising:

• providing a central server connected to a network and configured to be connected to a plurality of client computer terminals through the network, each of the plurality of client computer terminals adapted to stream a video from the network;
• streaming the video to a client computer terminal of a first user of the plurality of client computer terminals, wherein the video is being viewed by the first user;
• capturing commentary of the first user with a commentary capturing device, the capturing being performed while the first user views the video;
• storing the commentary of the first user on the central server;
• and
• streaming the video to a client computer terminal of a second user, wherein the video is being viewed by the second user while simultaneously playing back the commentary of the first user on the client computer terminal of the second user,
• wherein the streaming by the second user occurs asynchronously from the streaming by the first user.

A computer-implemented system for sharing an interactive experience, the system comprising:

• a central server connected to a network and configured to be connected to a plurality of client computer terminals through the network, each of the plurality of client computer terminals adapted to stream a video from the network;
• and
• a commentary capturing device adapted to capture commentary of one or more users while the one or more users view the video,
• wherein the client computer terminals are adapted to playback the commentary of the one or more users simultaneously while streaming the video, and wherein the videos are stored on the central server or a third party website, the video comprising a timecode for synchronizing a timing of the commentary with a timing of the video.
