1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a system having a processor, an indication of a user chosen source transceiver chosen from a listing of a plurality of source transceivers, wherein each of the plurality of source transceivers is associated with a source and configured to facilitate a telephony session between the source transceiver and a mobile target transceiver;
initiating, by the system, a telephony session between the system and the user chosen source transceiver;
determining, by the system, a geographic location of the mobile target transceiver;
providing, by the system, the geographic location to a destination; and
connecting, by the system, the mobile target transceiver to the telephony session, wherein;
the destination is a component selected from a group consisting of;
an internet-protocol-television device; and
a receiver device in operative communication with the internet protocol-television device; and
the geographic location is provided to the destination for presentation by way of the internet-protocol-television device.
