Abstract

A method of joining a session in which a plurality of users can each operate a user device (106) to control operations of a respective object displayed on a shared display means (102), wherein the display means is operative ly connected to a server means (100), wherein the plurality of users are each located in proximity to the display means such that the display means is visible to each user. The method comprises: associating, by a personal, portable user device, with over a wireless local communications network; receiving over the network, by the device, a package comprising computer program code, wherein the code enables the device to establish a connection with a server means; establishing, by the device, a connection with the server means over the network, wherein the code further enables the user operating said device to control a respective object on the display means by signalling with the server means over the connection.
