SPECIALLY PROGRAMMED COMPUTING DEVICES BEING CONTINUOUSLY CONFIGURED TO ALLOW UNFAMILIAR INDIVIDUALS TO HAVE INSTANTANEOUS REAL-TIME MEETINGS TO CREATE A NEW MARKETPLACE FOR GOODS AND/OR SERVICES
In some embodiments, the present invention provides for a computer system which includes at least the following components: a plurality of computing devices associated with a plurality of users associated with a plurality of users; where each computing device of the plurality of computing devices is configured to: electronically receive software which, when being executed, cause such computing device to display a plurality of instances of a specifically programmed graphical user interface (GUI); where each instance of the GUI is configured to display a real-time updatable meeting information representative of a direct electronic proximity-based communication between at least two computing devices associated with at least two users who desire to meet at a particular location to engage in a transaction of at least one good, at least one service, or both, whose marketable value lasts for a period of 30 seconds to 60 minutes.
1 .- 20 . (canceled)
21 . A computer-implemented method, comprising:
electronically receiving, by each computing device of a plurality of computing devices associated with a plurality of users, software which, when being executed, cause such computing device to display a plurality of instances of a specifically programmed graphical user interface (GUI);
wherein the plurality of users is at least one hundred concurrent users;
wherein each instance of the GUI is configured to display a real-time updatable meeting information associated with at least two users who desire to meet at a particular location;
wherein the meeting information comprises:
1) a first data representative of the particular location and
2) a second data representative of at least one unique user authentication identifier, which has been assigned to:
i) a particular computing device of the at least two computing devices or
ii) the at least two computing devices;
electronically receiving, by each of the at least two computing devices of the at least two users, an indication that the at least two users desire to meet; and
electronically establishing, by each of the at least two computing devices of the at least two users, a direct electronic proximity-based communication between the at least two computing devices.
22 . A system, comprising:
a plurality of computing devices associated with a plurality of users
wherein each computing device of the plurality of computing devices is configured to electronically receive software which, when being executed, cause such computing device to display a plurality of instances of a specifically programmed graphical user interface (GUI);
wherein the plurality of users is at least one hundred concurrent users;
wherein each instance of the GUI is configured to display a real-time updatable meeting information associated with at least two users who desire to meet at a particular location;
wherein the meeting information comprises:
1) a first data representative of the particular location and
2) a second data representative of at least one unique user authentication identifier, which has been assigned to:
i) a particular computing device of the at least two computing devices or
ii) the at least two computing devices;
wherein each computing device of the plurality of computing devices is configured to electronically receive an indication that the at least two users desire to meet; and
wherein each computing device of at least two computing devices, associated with the at least two users who desire to meet, is configured to electronically establish a direct electronic proximity-based communication between the at least two computing devices.
