Abstract
The present invention provides key disclosures in three aspects, geo-location information exploration, interaction over geo-locations, and geo-location information sharing. In one aspect, the present invention provides for geo-strolling, a concept of a user navigating to a geographical location on a computer graphically displayed map or environment. The user can be represented by a geo-stroller icon that is visible and programmed for interaction with other geo-strollers present at the same graphically mapped location. This concept is a powerful one because while virtual geo-strollers are not physically located at a place of interest, we can see where their minds are. By tracking the browsing intentions of users, embodiments of the present invention gather information of their interests, making them context compatible for social or business networking as well as other applications.
