Abstract
A system, method, and computer readable medium are provided for suggesting meeting locations to multiple users based, at least in part, on their current locations. In one example, a method includes receiving location information associated with at least two users, determining a center location with respect to the received location information, causing a search for a meeting location based on the determined center location, and causing communication of the meeting location(s) to at least one of the users. The method may further include receiving search criteria, where the search includes searching point-of-interest locations based on the center location and filtering the search results based on the search criteria. The method may further include receiving or using additional context information in addition to location information, such as time of day, day of the week, traffic conditions, weather conditions, and the like, to filter or order the search results.
