Abstract
An icon-based interactive professional profile, search and matching system configured within professional network platforms and technologies enabling a user to generate a personalized interactive icon-based business or resume profile representing icon profile elements optimized for display and functionality on mobile devices. The icon profile system utilizes and integrates selected personalized icon profile elements and associated data for searching, compatibility matching, invitations, communities, and calendar functions. In professional network environments, icon elements are unitized to aggregate users based on a selected icon profile element and in further environments automatically compare and report compatibility between unknown users, which vastly improves professional network functionality.
