1. A method for linking between a multimedia data element (MMDE) and a web page, comprising:
- receiving a MMDE from a source;
generating a signature representative of the MMDE using a signature generator;
matching the generated signature with a plurality of signatures stored in a database to find at least one matching signature;
extracting a universal resource locator (URL) of a web page associated with the matching signature, wherein the URL is part of a metadata of the matching signature; and
providing the URL to the source over a network.

11. A system for automatic linking between a multimedia data element (MMDE) and a web page, the system comprising:
-
a database containing a plurality of signatures, wherein at least a portion of the plurality of signatures having a universal resource locator (URL) of a respective web page associated to as a metadata; a signature generator for receiving a MMDE from a source through a network and generating a signature for the MMDE; and a matching engine for matching the generated signature for the MMDE to the plurality of signatures stored in the database and outputting the URL of at least one a signature matching the generated signature;
thereby responsive to receiving the MMDE a web page respective of the URL can be accessed. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
