detecting a first user mobile device located proximate the display screen; and
filtering the one or more posts on the display screen in response to detecting the first user mobile device located proximate the display screen and user data of the first user mobile device,
wherein the user data includes at least one of a home location of a user of the first user mobile device, a destination of the user of the first user mobile device, an age of the user of the first user mobile device, a gender of the user of the first user mobile device, a hobby of the user of the first user mobile device, a work place of the user of the first user mobile device, and an interest of the user of the first user mobile device.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising;
receiving one or more posts from one or more user mobile devices.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
displaying the one or more posts on a second user mobile device.

4. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:
detecting a third user mobile device located in the elevator car; and
