System and method for geographically associated or geographically disassociated enticing gift or video drop

A computer-implemented method for facilitating geographic enticing gift drops, the method comprising:

• presenting an interactive gift drop map on a smart mobile device
• receiving, by a gift drop logic section of the smart mobile device, a request to drop a symbolic gift item onto the interactive gift drop map;
• transmitting a request to a remote gift drop computer server to drop the symbolic gift item onto an authoritative copy of the interactive gift drop map;
• receiving a reply from the remote gift drop computer server;
• responsive to the reply being a confirmation indicating that the symbolic gift item has been placed onto the authoritative copy of the interactive gift drop map, dropping the symbolic gift item onto the interactive gift drop map presented on the smart mobile device;
• receiving, by the gift drop logic section of the smart mobile device, a request to place a geographic gift blocker onto the interactive gift drop map;
• transmitting a request to the remote gift drop computer server to place the geographic gift blocker onto the authoritative copy of the interactive gift drop map;
• responsive to the request, receiving a reply from the remote gift drop computer server;
• and
• responsive to the reply being a confirmation indicating that the geographic gift blocker has been placed onto the authoritative copy of the interactive gift drop map, placing the geographic gift blocker onto the interactive gift drop map presented on the smart mobile device.

A system for facilitating geographic video drops, the system comprising:

• a video drop database stored in a remote video drop computer server, wherein the video drop database includes an authoritative copy of an interactive video drop map;
• and
• a video drop logic section operable on a smart mobile device, wherein the video drop logic section includes the interactive video drop map, and wherein the video drop logic section is configured to:
• present the interactive video drop map to a user of the smart mobile device;
• detect a gesture from the user on a touch-sensitive display of the smart mobile device;
• responsive to the gesture, transmit a request to the remote video drop computer server via the cloud to drop a video onto the authoritative copy of the interactive video drop map;
• receive a reply from the remote video drop computer server via the cloud;
• and
• responsive to the reply being a confirmation indicating that the video has been placed onto the authoritative copy of the interactive video drop map, drop the video onto the interactive video drop map presented to the user of the smart mobile device;
• wherein:
• the user is referred to as a first user;
• the video drop logic section operable on the smart mobile device is further configured to:
• make the video hidden to a second user when the second user is outside of a first predefined geographic boundary;
• and
• make the video visible to the second user when the second user is inside of the first predefined geographic boundary;
• and
• the video drop logic section operable on the smart mobile device is further configured to:
• receive a request from the first user to place a geographic video blocker onto the interactive video drop map;
• transmit the request from the first user to the remote video drop computer server via the cloud to place the geographic video blocker onto the authoritative copy of the interactive video drop map;
• receive a reply from the remote video drop computer server via the cloud;
• and
• responsive to the reply being a confirmation indicating that the geographic video blocker has been placed onto the authoritative copy of the interactive video drop map, place the geographic video blocker onto the interactive video drop map presented on the smart mobile device.
