PROVIDING AN ITEM IMAGE

Abstract:

A first device captures an image of an item and provides the image depicting the item, information usable to direct an electronic communication to the first device, and a textual descriptor to a host machine. The host machine is accessible by a second device. The first device receives an electronic communication from the second device regarding the image based on the information usable to direct the electronic communication to the first device that is associated with the image. The image is identifiable by the second device based on a tag for the image selected by the host machine based on the textual information. The communication is received by the first device based on a location of the first device relative to a location of the second device.
