摘要

A wireless ad-hoc network for facilitating social interactions among a plurality of users includes a plurality of electronic devices associated with the plurality of users. An electronic device includes a transceiver module for establishing a direct communication link with the second electronic device and for generating an identification code associated with the second electronic device. A contacts module for maintaining a profile of a second user associated with the second electronic device and for mapping between the profile and corresponding identification code in response to establishing the direct communication link. The electronic device also includes a social interaction module for searching the second electronic device based on the mapping and for enabling a social interaction with the second electronic device over the direct communication link, and a user interface module for rendering output information to and for receiving input information from a user of the electronic device.
