Coordinating an action between devices

Abstract:

Techniques for coordinating an action between devices are described. According to one or more implementations, a first device is designated as a reporter of an action type, and a second device is designated as a subscriber to the action type. In at least one implementation, the action type represents an action that can occur at an end user device. The first device and the second device include a platform agnostic code module that enable the devices to exchange communications, such as via an intermediate coordinator. When the first device detects that an instance of the action type occurs, the first device reports the action via the platform agnostic code module, and the second device is notified of the action via the platform agnostic code module.
