Abstract: A mobile device receives media files, and automatically tags each of the media files with tags, comprising data or meta-data, based on: 1) other mobile users proximate to the mobile device, 2) a current location of the mobile device, 3) facial recognition analysis applied to each of the first media files, 4) subject or content recognition analysis applied to each of the first media files, 5) a current date, and/or 6) a usage history associated with each of the first media files. The mobile device stores the tagged media files, and receives a user request to search the media files. The mobile device searches the tags, responsive to the user request, to generate a filtered set of media files, and presents the filtered set of media files to a user of the mobile device.

Abstract: A method includes receiving, via a network, first location information associated with a location of a mobile user device; determining that the first location information corresponds to a first area that is within a perimeter of one or more geo-fenced locations associated with a service provider; identifying media content associated with the one or more geo-fenced locations; obtaining an identifier associated with the mobile user device; determining whether user-specific criteria is associated with the identifier; providing, by the service provider and while the mobile user device is located within the perimeter, access to the identified media content responsive to determining that no user-specific criteria is associated with the identifier; applying, responsive to determining that user-specific criteria is associated with the identifier, the user-specific criteria to the identified media content to generate personalized media content; and providing, by the service provider, access to the personalized media c
