Abstract
A method is provided for distributing information based on a geographic location profile of a user. The method receives, through a network, a first set of information. The method assembles a geographic location profile of a user based on the first set of information. The method selects a second set of information based on the geographic location profile of the user. The method then sends, through the network, the second set of information to a machine to be used by the user. The geographic location profile of the user includes a geographic location of interest to the user. The geographic location profile of the user and the second set of information are stored on a machine-readable medium.
