Abstract
A system and method for dynamically grouping messaging buddies in an electronic network may include a user device that communicates with a server device in the electronic network for transmitting message information to one or more selected buddy devices in the electronic network. The server device may include a profile database that is configured to store profiles which each include designated profile attributes for a corresponding one of the messaging buddies. A device user may utilize a messaging application of the user device to enter a dynamic grouping mode for generating a dynamic buddy list from a static buddy list based upon a grouping query of the various profiles in the profile database.
