    Abstract: A technological method for meeting people through electronic communication is described. Generally, the first user system sends a canned request to the second user system with the canned request being one or more signals indicative of a prerecorded message lacking in freshness and spontaneity to engage in an in-person communication. The message of the canned request is displayed on the second user system. Acceptance of the canned request to engage in an in-person communication is received from the second user system. A notification is provided to the first user system making the first user aware of the acceptance of the canned request.

  • Patent number: 11006251
    Abstract: A technological solution to the problem of meeting people solely through electronic communication is described. The technological solution includes receiving location data from a first user system a second user system of a potential encounter within a venue, and delivering a nudge from the first user system to the second user system. The nudge is a canned request to engage in an in-person communication for users associated with the first user system and the second user system. Upon confirmation of the nudge, and receiving confirmation of a human-to-human interaction, potential encounter contact information is provided to facilitate electronic communication between the first user system and the second user system.
