Abstract

The method and system for establishing user network groups based on commonality is disclosed. When a registered user logs in to the web-based application system, based on common non-user profile attributes, shortlisted common interest user(s) notifications would be displayed. Registered User can see the notifications and can visit those user profiles. User may add those notified common interest user(s) into his group/network. Thus user network groups can be established based on common non-user profile attributes/parameters in any web-based application system.

Claims

1. A method for establishing a user network group comprising:

logging in by a registered user in a web-based application;

establishing a commonality database based on common non-user profile attributes stored in a user database;

establishing a commonality matrix based on the common non-user profile attributes stored in the commonality database;

displaying a notification to the registered user based on established commonality matrix;

visiting notified user'"'"'s profile by the registered user; and

adding notified user to registered user'"'"'s network group.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the method comprises:

signing up by the user on the web-based application;

storing and registering the user profile in the user database to become the registered user;

updating the commonality database based on the common non-user profile attributes stored in the user database;

establishing the commonality matrix based on the common non-user profile attributes stored in the commonality database;

displaying the notification to the registered user based on the established commonality matrix;

visiting notified user'"'"'s profile by the registered user; and

adding notified user to the registered user'"'"'s network group.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the user is a learner or learning user and/or tutoring user or tutor or teacher and/or a learning application authoring user and/or a learning application translating user and/or a seller or vendor or vending user and/or a buyer or purchaser or purchasing user or any combination thereof.

4. A system for establishing a user network group comprising:

a user database configured for storing user profile attributes and non-user profile attributes;

a commonality module configured for establishing a commonality matrix;

a commonality database configured for storing the commonality matrix formed by the commonality module;

a notification module configured for displaying notification on a user device connected to a web-based application through a network; and

a group database configured for storing details of the user network groups.

5. The system of claim 4, wherein the user is a learner or learning user and/or tutoring user or tutor or teacher and/or a learning application authoring user and/or a learning application translating user and/or a seller or vendor or vending user and/or a buyer or purchaser or purchasing user or any combination thereof.

6. A computer readable medium embodying instructions for method for establishing a user network group comprising:

logging in by a registered user in a web-based application;

establishing a commonality database based on common non-user profile attributes stored in user database;

establishing a commonality matrix based on the common non-user profile attributes stored in the commonality database;

displaying a notification to the registered user based on established commonality matrix;

visiting notified user'"'"'s profile by the registered user; and

adding notified user to registered user'"'"'s network group.

7. The computer readable medium of claim 6, wherein the method comprises:

signing up by a user on the web-based application;

storing and registering the user profile in the user database to become the registered user;

updating the commonality database based on the common non-user profile attributes stored in the user database;

establishing the commonality matrix based on the common non-user profile attributes stored in the commonality database;

displaying the notification to the registered user based on the established commonality matrix;

visiting notified user'"'"'s profile by the registered user; and

adding notified user to the registered user'"'"'s network group.

8. The computer readable medium of claim 6, wherein the user is a learner or learning user and/or tutoring user or tutor or teacher and/or a learning application authoring user and/or a learning application translating user and/or a seller or vendor or vending user and/or a buyer or purchaser or purchasing user or any combination thereof.
