Embodiments of the invention enable users with communication devices to access affiliate profiles and perform matches on profiles aggregated from multiple independent computer systems regardless of communications device type or operating system and regardless of affiliate match server computer type, operating system or language. Affiliate profiles may comprise user profiles, advertisement profiles or coupon profiles. In addition, embodiments of the invention allow users to broadcast their location with their permission and join groups based on location parameters and connect to or dial other users by alias without knowledge of a machine address or phone number. Embodiments of the invention utilize information from each user in the form of a profile containing metadata. Examples of the type of metadata that comprises a profile include various categories of information describing a user, group, advertisement or coupon. In addition, the profile may comprise the user's groups and the user's preferences including filters for calculating matches with other user, group, advertisement and coupon profiles. Profiles are typically stored on a community engine server, but may also reside in distributed components configured to interface with the community engine server. A user profile may comprise a flag and other fields for example that signify that a user is interested in receiving advertisements for cars and for the type of car that the user is interested in. When a car dealership accepts delivery of a particular model that the user is interested in, the community engine server finds that affiliate profiles comprising aggregated car dealership advertisements include the same car type that the user is interested in and forward the matching advertisement profile to the user. The user may be paid for the advertisement in cash or coupons for accepting the advertisement. A user profile may also comprise a coupon flag and for example when a store that is an affiliate member provides coupon profiles to the community server engine a user may obtain desired coupons that match the user's profile settings if the user's profile is set to accept coupons. A user may match advertisements and coupons based on a location parameter and may transfer or trade advertisements and coupons with other users. The communication device may be capable of displaying a bar code in it's graphical interface while at a store so as to eliminate the need to physically present coupons.

A flexible database schema allows changes to the types of digital media objects, metadata types, and / or metadata relationships without corrupting the database, breaking applications functionality, or requiring the database reconstruction. A database schema stores all objects in a single table. The objects table contains common fields and generic metadata fields. The generic metadata fields reference metadata objects associated with a digital media object. Each type of digital media object can map its generic metadata fields to a different metadata hierarchy. A data access API provides a set of digital media object and metadata mappings to enable applications to insert and retrieve information from the database. The data access API can be updated as needed to account for changes in the metadata hierarchies of one or more types of digital media objects. The database schema can be used to store metadata for digital media objects or other types of data objects.
