Zusammenfassung:A method and system are provided for instantiating videos and webpages into a 3D virtual social venue to share with friends. A platform connects the 3D virtual social venue, comprising a virtual three-dimensional gathering space, with a user's social network. The social network provides a social graph with a list of the user's friends. The platform leverages the social graph to enable the user to invite friends to participate in a media-viewing experience within the virtual three-dimensional space. A browser plug-in enables a user to instantiate a web page or streaming media content within the web page onto a virtual viewing surface within the 3D virtual social venue.
