Abstract
An automated method adapted to allow sharing of information among a set of users is described. The method includes: performing a user sign up operation for each particular user in the set of users; generating a graphic code and an exchange uniform resource locator (URL) associated with each particular user; and providing a web page accessible at the URL. An automated method adapted to perform multi-directional sharing among a set of users is also described. The method includes: scanning a graphic code using a user device associated with a particular user; navigating to a uniform resource locator (URL) based at least partly on information received by scanning the graphic code; and sending a first set of information fields associated with the particular user to a user associated with the graphic code. An application may include: a camera interaction module; a processing module; and a communication module.
