Abstract
In today's telecommunications networks, signals for live communications are established by connecting the initiator of the communications ("the Initiators") with the known and predetermined receivers ("the Receivers") they have chosen.
Moreover, live communications can only be established within the limited time delays predetermined by network operators with respect to the time delay between the initiation by the Initiator and the acceptance by the Receiver.
The present invention enables Initiators to select a group of as-yet unknown and undetermined Receivers - based on characteristics such as physical location, regional affiliation, common ideas as determined by keyword searches, and other characteristics common to the selected group of Receivers - whom they wish to initiate a live communication session with. The Receiver is actually determined only if and when one or more qualified Receiver(s) elect to accept the invitation to communicate.
Moreover, an initiation to communicate may remain active for an undetermined time period, until a qualified Receiver elects to answer, or until the Initiator decides to terminate it.
Moreover, live communications can only be established within the limited time delays predetermined by network operators with respect to the time delay between the initiation by the Initiator and the acceptance by the Receiver.

Description
SPECIFICATION:
In today's telecommunications networks, signals for live communications are established by connecting the initiator of the communications ("the Initiators") with the known and predetermined receivers ("the Receivers") they have chosen.
Moreover, live communications can only be established within the limited time delays predetermined by network operators with respect to the time delay between the initiation by the Initiator and the acceptance by the Receiver.
The present invention enables Initiators to select a group of as-yet unknown and undetermined Receivers - based on characteristics such as physical location, regional affiliation, common ideas as determined by keyword searches, and other characteristics common to the selected group of Receivers - whom they wish to initiate a live communication session with. The Receiver is actually determined only if and when one or more qualified Receiver(s) elect to accept the invitation to communicate.
Moreover, an initiation to communicate may remain active for an undetermined time period, until a qualified Receiver elects to answer, or until the Initiator decides to terminate it.
In a typical application of the Invention, an Initiator enters a request to communicate or request live video or photos with someone (anyone) at an event being held at a specific venue. The request can be made, for example, via a personal computer, a mobile phone or a smart phone, on which a software or application embodying the Invention has been previously installed. The Initiator performs this action by entering the business name of the venue in a search field. The system will then propose to the Initiator possible results on a map of locations. The Initiator can then initiate the request. At this stage, the communication loop is thus entirely open-ended and undetermined with respect to actual Receivers.
Other users of the communication network being used by the Initiator (i.e. the potential Responders), automatically selected based on parameters defined by an intelligent network and as per criteria entered by the Initiator, are then notified of the Initiator's request to communicate. The selected Responders are then granted the option to connect to the session initiated by the Initiator and to establish a live session, for example an audio phone call, a photo sharing or a live video streaming session. At this stage, and only once each Receiver elects to connect to the session, are the potential communication loops determined with respect to each potential Receiver.
The system will then present the Initiator with the submissions of the Responders, in the form of a list with previews of streams which will be transmitted in real-time to the Initiator. The Initiator can then select which session(s) he/she wishes to connect to, based on meta-data included with the stream such as: the type of media being sent, the precise location of the Responder, the contact name, the Responder's reputation as determined by social networking data, etc. Only once the Initiator decides to connect with a Receiver in an actual communication session are the communication loops actualized with respect to an actual Receiver.

Claims (12)
1. A method and system of communication whereby an Initiator may initiate a request to communicate with an open ended set of as-yet unknown potential Responders in a live communication session, said Responders being identified through certain shared characteristics determined by the Initiator. The communication loop, namely the connection of the Initiator with a Responder in a live communication session, is only completed if and when one or many potential Responder(s) elect to accept the communication initiated by the Initiator.
2. The method and system described in Claim No. 1, where the potential Responders are defined by criteria determined by the signal Initiator. Said criteria may include, for example, geographical location, regional affiliation, attendance at events, identification with common ideas and/or concepts as determined by keyword and/or other search criteria, and other characteristics shared by potential Responders. Said criteria may also be validated by the network administrator having enabled the communication in question.
3. The method and system described in Claim No. 1, wherein the communication session occurs via landline phone connection, wireless network, Internet connection, or any communications network employing Internet Protocol as a means of communicating data across a packet-switched internetwork.
4. The method and system described in Claim No. 1, where the means to implement the method are embodied in a computer program or an application destined for use in a personal computer, laptop, smart phone, mobile phone, or any other type of handheld device.
5. The method and system described in Claim No. 1, where the communication session involves the transmission of voice data, graphical data, video streaming, photo data, audio-visual content in any format, and other forms of recorded or live generated content.
6. The method and system described in Claim No. 1, where the connection between Initiators and Receivers are promoted and encouraged through various motivational incentives such as credits, points, and social networking data indicative of reputation and standing within said network.
7. A method and system of communication whereby a request for communication initiated by an Initiator to an open-ended set of as-yet unknown and undetermined potential Responders may remain active indefinitely until either one or many Responder(s) elects to accept the communication session requested by the Initiator, or until the Initiator elects to terminate it.
8. The method and system described in Claim No. 7, where the potential Responders are defined by criteria determined by the signal Initiator. Said criteria may include, for example, geographical location, regional affiliation, attendance at events, identification with common ideas and/or concepts as determined by keyword and/or other search criteria, and other characteristics shared by potential Responders. Said criteria may also be validated by the network administrator having enabled the communication in question.
9. The method and system described in Claim No. 7, wherein the communication session occurs via landline phone connection, wireless network, Internet connection, or any communications network employing Internet Protocol as a means of communicating data across a packet-switched internetwork.
10. The method and system described in Claim No. 7, where the means to implement the method are embodied in a computer program or an application destined for use in a personal computer, laptop, smart phone, mobile phone, or any other type of handheld device.
11. The method and system described in Claim No. 7, where the communication session involves the transmission of voice data, graphical data, video streaming, photo data, audio-visual content in any format, and other forms of recorded or live generated content.
12. The method and system described in Claim No. 7, where the connection between Initiators and Receivers are promoted and encouraged through various motivational incentives such as credits, points, and social networking data indicative of reputation and standing within said network.
