Abstract

Extending a feature includes receiving a feature extension request from a first device identifying a feature not natively available to the first device. From a pool of registered devices, a second device offering the requested feature is identified. A communication link via which the requested feature can be extended to the first device is initiated. The extending of the requested feature from the second device to the first device is facilitated.
