Abstract
Systems and methods for the forming of user device groups are presented. In one example, a message including location information indicating a geographic location of a first user device is received from the first user device. Values representing logical connection strengths between the first user device and other user devices are calculated using the location information. A first device group is determined for the first user device based on the calculating of the values representing the logical connection strengths, the first device group including a plurality of the other user devices.

21. A method, comprising:
-
recording logical relationship information describing logical relationships between a first user and other users, the logical relationship information associated with a social networking service; receiving content from a first user device of the first user, the content having been generated by the first user device; receiving content from a second user device of the second user, the content having been generated by the second user device; based on a determination that the content from the first user device and the content from the second user device were received within a preset amount of time of each other, creating a first user group to which to associate the first user and the second user; and determining, at a server using at least one processor, whether to remove the first or second user from the first user group or to combine the first user group with at least one other user group based on the logical relationship information and the content. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)

29. A system comprising:
-
at least one processor; data storage comprising modules including instructions to be executed by the at least one processor, the modules comprising; an interaction recording module configured to record logical relationship information describing logical relationships between a first user and other users, the logical relationship information associated with a social networking service; an interface module configured to receive content from a first user device of the first user, the content having been generated by the first user device, and receive content from a second user device of the second user, the content having been generated by the second user device; and a group ranker module configured to, based on a determination that the content from the first user device and the content from the second user device were received within a preset amount of time of each other, create a first user group to which to associate the first user and the second user, and determine whether to remove the first or second user from the first user group or to combine the first user group with at least one other user group based on the logical relationship information and the content. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36)

37. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
-
recording logical relationship information describing logical relationships between a first user and other users, the logical relationship information associated with a social networking service; receiving content from a first user device of the first user, the content having been generated by the first user device; receiving content from a second user device of the second user, the content having been generated by the second user device; based on a determination that the content from the first user device and the content from the second user device were received within a preset amount of time of each other, creating a first user group to which to associate the first user and the second user; and determining, at a server using at least one processor, whether to remove the first or second user from the first user group or to combine the first user group with at least one other user group based on the logical relationship information and the content. - View Dependent Claims (38, 39, 40)
