Abstract: A system for sharing information between users and/or devices via close-proximity wireless communication. Devices located in close-proximity may be configured to transmit/receive wireless messages including information used to configure at least one of the devices. The configuration information may include, for example, information needed to add another user and/or device to a network group residing on the device receiving the configuration information. The configuration information may also serve other purposes, for example, to grant access to a resource located remotely to the device receiving the configuration information so that this wireless-enabled apparatus may remotely access and/or control the remote resource.
