Abstract
Context information communications allow a user to capture one or more locations and associated context information during a “journey”. Locations may be captured as GPS data or other position data. Context information may include images, video, audio, text, and other context information. The resulting context and locations can be saved to an aggregation server for remote access by another user via a web browser or via another mobile phone. Likewise, two users can do this concurrently, sharing their locations and images during their travels, thereby allowing each user to track the travels of the other user along with images taken by the other user.
