Abstract
YouTube4Two is an application that exploits the YouTube media library (through its API) to demonstrate a new style of social interaction. Two co-present people can share a video and act autonomously to navigate the related-video and comment lists, and search for videos. The novelty is that they can use their own smartphones connected via In- Ternet to control the shared application. The application has been designed according to the responsive-web-design (RWD) principle to smoothly pass from desktop interface (controlled by mouse and keyboard) to smartphone inter- face (with touch control). YouTube4Two introduces the multi-device responsive Web design (MD-RWD) style that extends the RWD style by introducing the separation be- Tween displayed content (on a shared screen) and displayed control commands (on personal smartphones) to support shared control over an applicationI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
