ABSTRACT:
Under the present invention a set of values is first determined. Such values include: a relative total value that is based on a total quantity of electronic interactions between a first user and a second user of the computerized network; a relative exclusive value that is based on a total quantity of electronic interactions exclusively between the first user and the second user; a relative longevity value that is based on a length of time the first user and the second user have been electronically interacting; and a relative recency value that is based on a recency of electronic interactions between the first user and the second user. Once determined, the values are weighted to yield normalized values. To calculate the relationship strength, the normalized values are summed and compared to a predetermined standard.
