Abstract

A system, method and computer program product for transmitting online content to one or more recipients through online messaging, including a selectable button embedded within online content; and an online messaging mechanism. The selectable button is configured upon selection to transmit the online content as a generated message to one or more recipients through the online messaging mechanism.

Claims

1. A computer implemented system for transmitting online content to one or more recipients through online messaging, the system comprising:

a selectable button embedded within online content; and

an online messaging mechanism;

wherein the selectable button is configured upon selection to transmit the online content as a generated message to one or more recipients through the online messaging mechanism.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the online messaging mechanism includes an instant messaging mechanism, and the selectable content is displayed on a device, including mobile phone, tablet, laptop or PC.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the online content in the transmitted messages is shown within a single application, or

wherein the online content from more than one application is represented within a single application.

4. The system of claim 1, further comprising:

action buttons configured to allow a user to take predetermined actions, including buying a product or service, or scheduling an appointment directly from the transmitted messages based on the online content.

5. The system of claim 1, wherein the online content is from a web page, and the generated message is related to conversations via a web browser.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein the online content includes locations on a map of a map application, and the generated message is related to in conversations sent directly from the map application.

7. A computer implemented method for transmitting online content to one or more recipients through online messaging, the method comprising:

embedding a selectable button within online content;

providing an online messaging mechanism; and

transmitting the online content as a generated message to one or more recipients through the online messaging mechanism upon selection of the selectable button.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein the online messaging mechanism includes an instant messaging mechanism, and the selectable content is displayed on a device, including mobile phone, tablet, laptop or PC.

9. The method of claim 7, wherein the online content in the transmitted messages is shown within a single application, or

wherein the online content from more than one application is represented within a single application.

10. The method of claim 7, further comprising:

allowing with action buttons a user to take predetermined actions, including buying a product or service, or scheduling an appointment directly from the transmitted messages based on the online content.

11. The method of claim 7, wherein the online content is from a web page, and the generated message is related to conversations via a web browser.

12. The method of claim 7, wherein the online content includes locations on a map of a map application, and the generated message is related to in conversations sent directly from the map application.

13. A non-transitory computer program product having stored thereon a program that when executed by one or more computer processors cause the one or more computer processors to execute a method for transmitting online content to one or more recipients through online messaging, the method comprising:

embedding a selectable button within online content;

providing an online messaging mechanism; and

transmitting the online content as a generated message to one or more recipients through the online messaging mechanism upon selection of the selectable button.

14. The computer program product of claim 13, wherein the online messaging mechanism includes an instant messaging mechanism, and the selectable content is displayed on a device, including mobile phone, tablet, laptop or PC.

15. The computer program product of claim 13, wherein the online content in the transmitted messages is shown within a single application, or

wherein the online content from more than one application is represented within a single application.

16. The computer program product of claim 13, further comprising:

allowing with action buttons a user to take predetermined actions, including buying a product or service, or scheduling an appointment directly from the transmitted messages based on the online content.

17. The computer program product of claim 13, wherein the online content is from a web page, and the generated message is related to conversations via a web browser.

18. The computer program product of claim 13, wherein the online content includes locations on a map of a map application, and the generated message is related to in conversations sent directly from the map application.
