Abstract
Methods and systems for integrated consumer experience and social networking are disclosed comprising the function of presenting a communication function to facilitate communication among multiple users wherein different modes of communication are achieved through a unified process utilizing a context information. The methods and systems further comprise the functions of causing two images to be displayed wherein the two images overlap with each other, and presenting a logic to determine which one of the two images a gesture control signal is directed to. Additionally, the methods and systems can also comprise the functions of receiving a location information of a first device, receiving a location information of a second device, receiving a distance limitation from the first device, determining if the second device is within the distance limitation, and delivering a message from the first device to the second device if the second device is within the distance limitation.
