Abstract

A client system for integrating interactivity with video including a first window, a second window and an application program. The first window displays video content and the second window displays interactive elements. The application program manages the first and second window to display the interactive elements semi-transparently superimposed over the video content. Related methods and articles of manufacture are also disclosed.
