Abstract

In some implementations, a service provider may enable location-based interaction of a user of a device with at least one of a digital work or another user. For instance, when the service provider determines that the device of the user is at a particular physical location, the service provider may send a communication to notify the user that one or more digital works are available to be accessed at the current physical location of the device. As one example, a digital work may have been virtually left at the location by another user, and the digital work may be available to be accessed by the user currently at the location. As another example, the user may be attending an event and the service provider may offer a digital work related to the event when the user is determined to be at the location of the event.
