20130282805 | FORMING NETWORKS OF USERS ASSOCIATED WITH A CENTRAL ENTITY - Computer-implemented methods, computer-readable media, and systems for forming networks of users associated with a central entity. When a central entity receives multiple requests from multiple users to register for an event associated with the entity, the entity forms a user network that did not exist until then. The entity receives data describing the users using which the entity generates user interfaces showing all users in the network, and presents the user interfaces on users' computer systems. When a subset of the users check-in with the entity, the entity displays information about one of the users in the subset to another, and allows the users to communicate with each other. When the event associated with the entity ends, the entity terminates the network. In this manner, the central entity forms temporary user networks that expire when an event scheduled at the central entity occurs. | 10-24-2013 |
