This paper introduces a new way of delivering local messages to mobile subscribers. Our application presents a mashup from passive monitoring for smart phones and cloud-based messaging for mobile operational systems. Passive monitoring can detect the presence of mobile phones without active participation from the users. It does not require prior calibration, nor does it require mobile users to mark their own location on social networks (like traditional check-ins). Mobile users do not need to run location track applications on their phones the. At the same time, a production-based expert system built around cloud messaging allows interested parties to directly deliver their custom information to mobile users in proximity.
