Abstract

A method and an apparatus for data exchange. The method identifies a first user located within a predefined boundary of a second user according to the location information of two users, and updates the basic statuses of the two users according to their behavior records. The method then determines whether a delayed type of a data exchange request requesting a data exchange between the users is preferred, according to the basic status of the first user and/or the second user. Upon receiving the data exchange request, the server executes the data exchange after a delay permitted by the data exchange request. The method determines the delayed type to be preferred if the basic status of one of the users is in a busy state.
