Abstract
A system and method of mobile matchmaking is provided enabling real-time management, filtering, prioritization, mapping, and interaction of and between location-based resources, such as member resources (persons), and affiliate resources (e.g., third party businesses and advertisers). Resources in the vicinity of a user are displayed on at least one of a mobile application map and a website map, providing the user with a dynamically comprehensive and detailed “matchmaking map.” Various embodiments enable prioritization, contact/interaction with, and management, in real-time, of those resources, (member and/or affiliate resources). Various icons representative of the resources are displayed on the matchmaking map, where the icons can be selected and shortened and/or detailed profiles of the resources are presented. Furthermore, various embodiments provide the ability for a user to survey the activity/matchmaking “scene” of a future destination/location to be traveled to and/or create one or more activity itineraries for future travel in advance.
