Abstract
A video augmenting computer augments a video with snippet information. The video augmenting computer transmits requests to multiple remote video reviewing computers for a video and a snippet to augment the video. The snippet provides additional information about a particular passage from the video, and each of the requests includes a request for a profile of a reviewer of the video who created the snippet. The video augmenting computer receives the video and multiple versions of the snippet that were created by different reviewers of the video, and then compares profiles of the different reviewers to a profile of a new viewer of the video. In response to the profile of the new viewer matching a profile of a particular reviewer from the different reviewers of the video, the video augmenting computer augments the video with the snippet that was created by the particular reviewer to create an augmented video.
