The Internet is a useful tool not only for meeting people in virtual spaces, but also for arranging meetings in the real world, often referred to as offline, and as a result, school alumni and fellowship members communicate with each other over the Internet. It functions to close meetings of people. However, online alumni and club meetings and exchanges can be useful as a venue for regular meetings between people who are constantly sharing certain delays, kinship, academic or specific common goals, such as hobbies. However, there is a problem in that it is difficult to be practically used as a method of arranging a meeting for achieving a common purpose among those who do not know each other well.

On the other hand, unlike club activities, the chance to meet through chat between people who do not know each other may be provided. However, in the case of chat, there is a disadvantage that it is not easy to talk one-on-one with the opposite sex, and it is only a meeting in cyberspace that is different from the real world. In addition, even if you find the right reason through internet chat, if you have inferiority in matters such as education, appearance, personality, and money, you may be reluctant to meet others in the real world. to be.

These websites thoroughly check the qualifications from the membership registration process, obtain the ideal type of information in detail, search for the ideal type by the matching system, and provide differentiated meeting opportunities by providing differentiated meetings. Satisfaction is improving. However, in order to become a member of a website that provides such a heterogeneous meeting, members must meet certain qualifications such as educational background, social status, workplace, and appearance, and, in addition, have a considerably higher cost than a traditional dating website.

It consists of a system of meetings.

In other words, it may be difficult to compromise with each other in the place or time of the meeting, and in order to have a meeting, they have to make time to deliberately put each other on a busy daily life. In addition, there is a problem that even if you want to have a continual encounter with each other at the first meeting, it is very difficult to deliberately spend time in the busy daily life and miss the opportunity of ties because they do not have a continuous meeting.

In order to solve the above problems, in the present invention, people who use a particular means of transportation at a given time at a predetermined time to register their personal information and boarding information, such as boarding station, boarding time, getting off station, etc. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method and system for providing a meeting service using wired / wireless internet and transportation that have a chance of meeting at a predetermined place by selecting members having similar traffic information among registered members.
