Abstract
A computer system that provides a social network for traveling people includes software that maintains a list of members and buddies of the members. Each member has at least one association to a unique person identifier. The software downloads schedule(s) from pre-determined schedule system(s). Each schedule has records with a person identifier, at least one date/time, and a location. The software searches the schedule(s) and extracts a subset of records in which the person identifier corresponds with the unique person identifier of any member and the software creates layover entries from the subset. The software searches the layover entries for overlapping layovers, determined by a first member having a layover that overlaps with a layover of a buddy member (e.g. having the same or similar location). For each overlapping layover, the software notifies either the member and/or the buddy who have the overlapping layover.
