Abstract :
There is undoubtedly an increase in the number of Web-connected devices, such as home appliances, handheld devices, and smartphones. Though Web applications are intended for information sharing among users, conventional Web technology does not sufficiently support synchronized sharing of information among various devices. We propose a method for synchronized sharing information among various Web-connected devices. We present an online bingo game system as an example of an information-sharing application. Members of the bingo game can shout “Bingo!” at the same time among all members from different environments.
