Location-based conversation engine for entities in a social networking system

A system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory device storing executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to:
• identify a list of wireless source identifiers associated with a social networking entity that is associated with a social networking system;
• determine a location of a computing device within a physical establishment associated with the social networking entity based on a combination of:
• an interaction between the computing device and a wireless source associated with a wireless source identifier from the list of wireless source identifiers, and
• information associated with the social networking entity;
• generate a message based on the determined location of the computing device within the physical establishment associated with the social networking entity;
• and
• send the message in a messaging thread between the social networking entity and a social networking account associated with the computing device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause a computer system to:

• identify a list of wireless source identifiers associated with a social networking entity that is associated with a social networking system;
• determine a location of a computing device within a physical establishment associated with the social networking entity based on a combination of:
• an interaction between the computing device and a wireless source associated with a wireless source identifier from the list of wireless source identifiers, and
• information associated with the social networking entity;
• generate a message based on the determined location of the computing device within the physical establishment associated with the social networking entity;
• and
• send the message in a messaging thread between the social networking entity and a social networking account associated with the computing device.
