Touch-enabled device navigation system
First Claim
1. A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer useable storage device having a computer readable program that, responsive to execution on a touch-enabled device having a touch-enabled display device that is viewable by a user, causes the touch-enabled device to:
- establish, from the touch-enabled device, a two-way connection with a computing device through a network, the computing device having a display device that is viewable by the user and a content authoring program stored therein that is configured to modify content, the display device of the computing device being different from the touch-enabled display device of the touch-enabled device;
receive, at the touch-enabled device, content from the content authoring program;
display, at the touch-enabled device, the content received from the content authoring program;
recognize, by the touch-enabled device, a disconnection of the two-way connection;
receive, at the touch-enabled device and from the user of the touch-enabled device, an input as part of user interaction editing the content received from the content authoring program; and
responsive to re-establishing the two-way connection at the touch-enabled device, send, from the touch-enabled device, the edited content to the content authoring program on the computing device such that the content authoring program is updated with the edited content, the updating enabling continuation of the user interaction with the content authoring program through the computing device.

Abstract
A touch-enabled device establishes a two-way connection with a computing device through a network. The computing device has a content authoring program stored therein. Further, the touch-enabled device displays a navigation menu. In addition, the touch-enabled device receives an input indicating a selected item from the navigation menu. The touch-enabled device sends the selected item to the computing device such that the computing device utilizes the selected item in the content authoring program. Further, the touch-enabled device receives, from the computing device, an indication that the computing device is utilizing the selected item in the content authoring program.

3. A method comprising:
-
establishing, from a touch-enabled device, a two-way connection with a computing device through a network, the touch-enabled device having a touch-enabled display that is viewable by a user and displaying a first graphical user interface, the computing device having a display that is viewable by the user and displaying a second graphical user interface and a content authoring program stored therein that is configured to modify the content, the display of the computing device being different from the touch-enabled display of the touch-enabled device; displaying, at the touch-enabled device and in the first graphical user interface, a navigation menu; receiving, at the touch-enabled device, an input as part of user interaction indicating a selection from within the navigation menu; sending, from the touch-enabled device, the selection to the content authoring program on the computing device; and causing the content authoring program on the computing device to display an indication of the selection in the second graphical user interface, the displayed indication enabling continuation of the user interaction with the content authoring program through the second graphical user interface. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A system comprising:
-
an establishment module that establishes, from a touch-enabled device having a touch-enabled display that is viewable by a user, a two-way connection with a computing device through a network, the computing device having a display that is viewable by the user and a content authoring program stored therein that is configured to modify content, the display of the computing device being different from the touch-enabled display of the touch-enabled device; a graphical user interface that displays, on the touch-enabled display of the touch-enabled device that is viewable by the user, a navigation menu, the navigation menu containing tools to be utilized for content authoring in the content authoring program on the computing device; an input module that receives, at the touch-enabled device, a first input as part of user interaction customizing the navigation menu containing tools and a second input as part of the user interaction indicating a selected tool from the navigation menu; a transmission module that sends, from the touch-enabled device, the selected tool to the computing device, the sending enabling continuation of the user interaction with the content authoring program via utilization of the selected tool to modify the content using the content authoring program on the computing device; and a reception module that receives, at the touch-enabled device from the computing device, an indication that the selected tool is being utilized by the content authoring program on the computing device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
