Abstract

A system and process are described where a user of a mobile device grants access to resources associated with the mobile device to other users. Access is typically established when the user of the mobile device couples the device to a network environment and another user provides data that matches sharing criteria associated with the desired resource. The sharing criteria can include user ID/password combination, a network ID or a combination of both.
