Abstract:
Particular embodiments include receiving, from a client system of a first user, location data that includes a first geographic location of the first user. A search query inputted by the first user at a search interface may be received from the client system. A plurality of second geographic locations matching the search query may be identified. The second geographic locations may be ranked based on a proximity of the respective second geographic location to the first geographic location of the first user and one or more social factors associated with the respective second geographic location. A list of one or more of the second geographic locations may be sent to the client system for display, where the one or more second geographic locations may be presented according to their rankings.
