Abstract
A method of accessing content at a user terminal connected to a communication network and executing a communication client includes the client displaying a list of contacts associated with a user of the client and the client retrieving a message from the communication network. The message is related to a further user represented by one of the contacts displayed in the list of contacts, and includes a reference to content stored in a storage means accessible by the communication network. The client initiates a call to the further user over the communication network responsive to a user of the client selecting the one of the contacts in the list of contacts. Responsive to initiating the call, the client establishes communication with the storage means using the reference, accesses the content and displays the content at the user terminal.
