Abstract
In this work, we design and prototype Proximiter, a mobile proximity-based content sharing application. We implement popular content sharing services on portable devices, and show how they are utilized for realizing the idea of "sharing on the move". Our goal is to build a proof-of-concept platform and show the feasibility of this emerging application. Meanwhile, we seek to shed lights on its potential impact on the way people share and interact, and thus stimulate new ideas and perspectives on its design and deployment. In addition, we aim to showcase the use of ad-hoc networking technologies in supporting mobile applications with social networking flavors.
