System and method for alerting a first mobile data processing system nearby a second mobile data processing system
First Claim
1. A data processing method comprising:
- determining a first situational location with a first automatically detected location of a first mobile data processing system;
receiving content from said first mobile data processing system;
determining a region around said detected location of said first mobile data processing system, wherein said region is defined by a circle having a radius that is user configurable;
determining a second situational location with a second automatically detected location of a second mobile data processing system, where said second mobile data processing system has a predefined relationship to said first mobile data processing system and the relationship is known to the data processing system, or a second user of said second mobile data processing system has a predefined relationship to a first user of said first mobile data processing system, and the relationship is known to the data processing system;
determining that said second mobile data processing system is within said region; and
sending said content to said second mobile data processing system.

Abstract
Provided is a fully automated web service with location based services generally involved in transmission of situational location dependent information to automatically located mobile receiving data processing systems. The web service communicates with a receiving data processing system in a manner by delivering information to the device when appropriate without the device requesting it at the time of delivery. There are varieties of configurations made by different user types of the web service for configuring information to be delivered, and for receiving the information. The web service maximizes anonymity of users, provides granular privacy control with a default of complete privacy, and supports user configurable privileges and features for desired web service behavior and interoperability. The web service is fully automated to eliminate human resources required to operate services. Integrated with the web service are enhanced location based services providing map solutions, alerts, sharing of novel services between users, and complete user control for managing heterogeneous device interoperability through the web service.
