System and Method for Providing Sequenced Anonymous Communication Sessions Over a Network
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, from a first endpoint, a request for a communication session involving a second endpoint;
reconciling communication session sequencing data between a first endpoint and a second endpoint; and
,identifying end user data associated with a first endpoint, wherein the data associated with the first endpoint is mapped to an identity of the first endpoint, and wherein the second endpoint is shown the mapped identity of the first endpoint and not the end user data associated with the first endpoint.

Abstract
A method for facilitating a sequenced, anonymous communications session in a communications environment is provided in one example that includes receiving, from a first endpoint, an anonymous, sequenced request for a communication session involving a second endpoint. The communication session is sequenced to occur at designated periods provided by the end user(s) and/or an administrator, while maintaining end user(s) anonymity.

20. Software for providing an intermediary between endpoints, the software being embodied in a computer readable medium and comprising computer code such that when executed by a processor in an electronic environment is operable to:
-
receive, from a first endpoint, a request for a communication session involving a second endpoint; reconcile communication session sequencing data between a first endpoint and a second endpoint; and
,identify end user data associated with a first endpoint, wherein the data associated with the first endpoint is mapped to an identity of the first endpoint, and wherein the second endpoint is shown the mapped identity of the first endpoint and not the end user data associated with the first endpoint. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24)
