  • Patent number: 10122774
    Abstract: Techniques for enabling members that have interacted physically to interact thereafter via an online social networking service are described. According to various embodiments, it is determined that a first member and a second member of an online social networking service physically interacted at an interaction location at an interaction time, and a specific time interval commencing at the interaction time is calculated. Thereafter, an ephemeral prompt is displayed to the first member, during the specific time interval, indicating that the first member physically interacted with the second member, and inviting the first member to message the second member via the online social networking service. The ephemeral prompt is prevented from being displayed subsequent to expiration of the specific time interval.
