Abstract

A method of two-way information exchange for a system for making friends is disclosed. With the method, a system can provide a primary target client blended with a plurality of false target clients for a requesting client who seeks making friends. The requesting client is entitled to request the system to delete one of the target clients when communication between both parties reaches a threshold of time. The requesting client does not know which one of the target clients is the real client until all of the false target clients have been deleted, thus reducing preconceptions due to a person'"'"'s appearance. As such, after a period of communication, both parties may achieve a certain degree of mutual understanding to facilitate a decision on making friends.

Claims

1. A method of two-way information exchange for a system including information exchange processing equipment which includes at least one data storage device and at least one server connected with the data storage device, the method comprising:

(a) receiving a connection request and exchange conditions from a requesting client using a communication device with a display screen;

(b) searching the data storage device for at least one online client, known as a primary target client, according to the exchange conditions, and searching the data storage device for a plurality of clients, known as false target clients, according to the exchange conditions;

(c) connecting the primary target client with the requesting client through the communication device to start a communication activity, and sending data of the primary target client and data of the false target clients to the communication device of the requesting client;

(d) granting the requesting client a delete privilege when the requesting client communicating with the primary target client reaches a threshold of time;

(e) deleting at least one of the false target clients and then sending data of the remaining false target clients and data of the primary target client to the communication device of the requesting client when receiving a delete request from the requesting client; and

(f) terminating the communication activity upon receiving a request from the requesting client or the primary target client.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising step (g) before step (a), which is:

(g) storing personal data provided by clients, including the requesting client, the primary target client and the false target clients, to the data storage device for registration.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising step (f1) after step (f), which is:

(f1) receiving a request from the requesting client who seeks to continue communicating with the primary target client of step (b) to start a next communication activity.

4. The method of claim 3, further comprising step (f2) after step (f1), which is:

(f2) granting the requesting client a game privilege, and sending a graphic interface of the game to the display screen of the communication device of the requesting client and a display screen of a communication device of the primary target client after receiving a request of playing a game from the requesting client, whereby the requesting client collaborates with the primary target client to win the game.

5. The method of claim 1, further comprising step (i) between step (d) and step (e), which is:

(i) granting the requesting client at least one replacement privilege, and replacing the primary target client by another client and re-executing step (d) when receiving a replacement request from the requesting client.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein, in step (d), the server may grant the requesting client a gift privilege.

7. A system for making friends, comprising:

at least one communication device having at least one display screen; and

information exchange processing equipment, which includes;

at least one data storage device capable of storing data provided from a plurality of clients, and

at least one server connected with the data storage device, the server capable of receiving exchange conditions provided from a requesting client using the communication device to search for at least one online client, known as a primary target client, according to the exchange conditions, and to search for a plurality of clients, known as false target clients, according to the exchange conditions, the server connecting the primary target client with the requesting client through the communication device of the requesting client, and sending data of the primary target client and data of the false target clients to the communication device of the requesting client;

wherein the server grants the requesting client a delete privilege when the requesting client communicating with the primary target client reaches a threshold of time, the server deletes at least one of the false target clients, and the server sends data of the remaining false target clients and data of the primary target client to the communication device of the requesting client when receiving a delete request from the requesting client.

8. The system of claim 7, wherein the server includes a statistical unit capable of calculating the count of information exchange of the requesting client communicating with the primary target client, and the server is capable of sending a symbol corresponding to the count of information exchange to the communication device of the requesting client.
