TOPICAL SERVICE PROVIDES CONTEXT INFORMATION FOR A HOME NETWORK

摘要

A consumer apparatus is made an intuitive component of a user-interface to a topical server. A specific user-interaction with the apparatus or its proxy on the home network causes a request to be sent to a specific server on the Internet based on a predefined URL. The home network receives a particular web page from the server with content information dedicated to the context of use of the apparatus.
