The method also includes detecting at least one gesture from the second user, where the detecting of the at least one gesture indicates that the second user intends to be a current presenter. The method also includes causing the user interface to display the second user video stream in the current presenter position and to display the first user video stream in the secondary presenter position in response to the detecting.
