Abstract
The disclosure provides for collaborating user data maintained in separate mobile devices by tangibly manipulating the distance and orientation between the mobile devices. The placement of one device with respect to one or more other devices triggers an action when the proximity and orientation between the devices is detected. The data on each proximal device is temporarily shared among the devices, allowing the users of the devices to see the aggregated data.
