Abstract

A system and method for the determination and assignment of a unique local channel identifier (ULCI) to enable the multi-site and multi-user sharing of content are described. Various embodiments allow sending by a primary user to a server an indication of one or more users to be invited to use a personal channel. The server determines a unique local channel identifier (ULCI) for the personal channel, where the ULCI represents a common open channel for the primary user and the one or more invited users. The primary user and the one or more invited users are allowed access to the personal channel via the ULCI. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
