People often are curious to know about new persons in and around the locality they inhabit, at work places or gatherings. Many are introvert and thus hesitate to interact even with the new next-door neighbour. In alien places there may be always an urge to find a person belonging to one's homeland. In case of emergencies, there comes a need to find a doctor in the vicinity. There is thus a need for a system that takes into consideration these voids and assists in spontaneous human-human interaction. It should allow people to know each other seamlessly and interact by exchanging information using mobile devices and help build a social network. In this paper, we discuss the design and implementation of one such system, nicknamed EzeeCom, which, in addition to the above, allows a person to discover the whereabouts of another. Based on IEEE 802.11b, this system aids a person to use mobile devices to form a network, and localize, find and communicate with others - either in proximity or otherwise. The paper also presents experimental and simulation results to authenticate the feasibility of the system.
