Abstract
The present invention is directed toward a computer implemented method and device for configuring a user agent (e.g., a web browser) to act as a web server, and host services to be available to the end users of other user agents (e.g., web browsers) acting as clients. Such services may be provided by executing web widgets written in a scripting language, or provided as simple HTML services. The present invention further provides various techniques (e.g., Network Address Translation (NAT) traversal) for allowing requests for a service to pass to the user agent acting as a server, by making such requests appear to a firewall as responses to an initial request made by the user agent.
