Abstract: A system and method are disclosed enabling users to identify and discreetly contact other users at a venue via their computing devices. In an example, a map of the venue may be displayed to users on their computing devices, together with representations of the positions of users in the venue. A first user may select the representation of a second user on his or her computing device, and thereafter see information about the second user and/or send a message to the second user.
