A method, implemented by one or more computer processors, comprising:

• receiving, from a first personal electronic device, a content file and a unique identifier, wherein the unique identifier uniquely identifies a geographic location of a physical object;
• generating a virtual property that corresponds with the unique identifier;
• associating the content file with the virtual property based on the unique identifier;
• receiving, from a second client portable electronic device, a request for access to content files associated with the virtual property;
• receiving, from a location services module of the second personal electronic device, geographic location information of the second personal electronic device;
• determining that the second client portable electronic device is within a predetermined distance from the virtual boundary based on the geographic location information;
• and
• providing, upon the determination, the content file associated with the virtual property to the second client portable electronic device.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising a plurality of instructions configured to execute on at least one computer processor to enable the computer processor to:

• receive, from a first personal electronic device, a content file and a unique identifier, wherein the unique identifier uniquely identifies a geographic location of a physical object;
• generate a virtual property that corresponds with the unique identifier;
• associate the content file with the virtual property based on the unique identifier;
• receive, from a second client portable electronic device, a request for content files associated with the virtual property;
• receive, from a location services module of the second personal electronic device, geographic location information of the second personal electronic device;
• determine that the second client portable electronic device is within a predetermined distance from the physical object based on the geographic location information;
• and
• provide, upon the determination, the content file associated with the virtual property to the second client portable electronic device.
