Social Network System and Method Based on User Selected Geographic Locations

摘要

A novel system and method for establishing a social network based on user selected geographic locations. In a preferred embodiment, a registered user selects one or more geographic locations from actual locations around the world. The user then joins specific neighborhoods/communities or interest groups within the selected locations to share personal experiences. Interactions between the registered user and others are based on mutual topics of interest specified by the selected geographic location(s) and interests. Interactions include notifications, posts and discussions. The registered user can also access information such as weather, calendars, advertisements, job banks, personal ads and RSS feeds that are specific to the selected geographic location(s) and interests. The system allows registered users to participate in polls, surveys and questionnaire specific to the selected geographic location(s) and interest groups.
