This thesis proposes an infrastructure for location-based services for Bluetooth enabled cellular phones. Specifically, it explores the use of this architecture in a location-based messaging application. A user can send or receive messages based on their current location, thereby increasing the relevance of the messages to the user's current context and activities. The messages are organized into threads, which embody a subject matter, a set of possible senders and a set of anticipated receivers. This is the primary means by which the messages that are filtered, to prevent users from being bombarded with irrelevant messages.
