  • Patent number: 9460116
    Abstract: A group of common users each with a mobile device are provided access to information displayed on a group of virtual walls. Each wall corresponds to a different real world location or venue owned or associated with a common entity. The mobile devices are used for viewing information and, when in the vicinity of the real world locations, publishing location-based user content to the corresponding walls. Groups of virtual walls may be created from a set of configurable templates, each template representing a different business vertical.

  • Patent number: 9245041
    Abstract: Techniques described herein allow a user to automatically associate an object with a location of the user and/or the object. This object and associated location may then be transferred to an entity for publishing the object and location on a map. For example, a user may capture a digital picture or video on a device and, in response, may automatically transmit the picture or video and corresponding location data for publishing to a map that is associated with the user. The described techniques also allow a user to create a journal that is associated with an annotated map. For instance, the user may create a journal having one or more portions that are associated with one or more portions of an annotated map. As a user consumes (e.g., reads, views, listens, etc.) the created journal, the view of the map or the displayed annotations may correspondingly change. Finally, the described techniques allow for creation of multiple overlays on a digital map.

  • Publication number: 20110191253
    Abstract: The present application relates to the use of mobile devices for viewing and publishing location-based user information. One example allows a user of a mobile device to access content associated with a virtual version of an entity that exists at a physical location regardless of a location of the mobile device. This example enables the user to submit content to the virtual version when the mobile device is proximate the physical location.
