Method, system and program product for supporting a transaction between electronic device users

1. A computer-implemented method for supporting a transaction between electronic device users, comprising:

receiving a transaction request from a first electronic mobile device; wherein the transaction request consists of a request to sell goods or services;

determining a location of the first electronic device; and

identifying a second mobile electronic device for receiving the transaction request based on a proximity of a location of the second electronic device to the location of the first electronic device, and based on a capability of a user of the second mobile electronic device to fulfill the transaction request by purchasing the goods or services, the identifying further comprising:

comparing the location of the first electronic device to the location of the second electronic device; and

selecting the second electronic device if the proximity of the location of the second electronic device to the location of the first electronic device meets a predetermined standard.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first electronic device and the second electronic device are selected from the group consisting of wireless devices and hardwired devices.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the location of the first electronic device and the second electronic device are determined based on a global positioning system (GPS).

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the location of the first electronic device and the second electronic device are determined based on one of a triangulation using cellular telephone signals or a triangulation using television signals.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting information to the first electronic device to fulfill the transaction request.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the proximity is established based on a connection of the second electronic device and the first electronic device to a common node.

7. A computer-implemented method for supporting a transaction between electronic device users, comprising:

receiving a transaction request from a first mobile electronic device possessed by a requestor; wherein the transaction request consists of a request from the requestor to sell goods or services;

determining a location of the requestor based on the electronic device;

identifying a trading partner with a second mobile electronic device to fulfill the transaction request based on a proximity of a location of the trading partner to the location of the requestor; and based on a capability of the trading partner to fulfill the transaction request by purchasing the goods or services, the identifying further comprising:

comparing the location of the requestor to the location of the trading partner; and

selecting the trading partner if the proximity of the locations meets a predetermined standard.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the first electronic device is a first wireless device, wherein the trading partner operates a second wireless device, and wherein the location of the trading partner is based on the second wireless device.

9. The method of claim 7 , further comprising transmitting information pertaining to the identified trading partner to the requestor.

10. The method of claim 7 , wherein the locations of the requestor and the trading partner are determined based on a global positioning system (GPS).

11. The method of claim 7 , wherein the location of the requestor and the trading partner are determined based on one of a triangulation using cellular telephone signals or a triangulation using television signals.

12. The method of claim 7 , wherein proximity is established based on a connection of the trading partner and the requestor to a common node.

13. A system for supporting a transaction between electronic device users, comprising:

a request system for receiving a transaction request from a first electronic mobile electronic device possessed by a requestor; wherein the transaction request consists of a request from the requestor to sell goods or services;

a location system for determining a location of the requestor based on the first electronic device;

a matching system for identifying a trading partner with a second mobile electronic device to fulfill the transaction request based on a proximity of a location of the trading partner to the location of the requestor; and based on a capability of the trading partner to fulfill the transaction request by purchasing the goods or services, the identifying further comprising:

comparing the location of the requestor to the location of the trading partner; and

selecting the trading partner if the proximity of the locations meets a predetermined standard.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the first electronic device is a first wireless device, wherein the trading partner operates a second wireless device, and wherein the location of the trading partner is based on the second wireless device.

15. The system of claim 13 , further comprising a broker system for communicating information to support the transaction.

16. The system of claim 13 , further comprising a metric system for tracking statistics for the transaction.

17. The system of claim 13 , wherein the location of the requestor is determined based on a GPS analysis of the electronic device.

18. The system of claim 13 , wherein the location of the requestor is determined by one of a triangulation using cellular telephone signals or a triangulation using television signals.

19. The system of claim 13 , wherein the matching system identifies the trading partner by applying a predetermined standard to the proximity of the locations of the requestor and the trading partner.
