There is provided a method that includes (a) receiving a text message that was sent from a first user device via a communications network, (b) detecting a text string in the text message, (c) executing a process, in response to detecting the text string, wherein the executing yields a result, and (d) sending the result to a second user device via the communications network. In an exemplary embodiment, a user of a first mobile telephone uses an SMS message to invoke a process that provides, to a user of a second mobile telephone, a map that shows a location of the first mobile telephone.

Provided is a method for exchanging information, the method including: receiving content destined to a virtual representation of a recipient; sending the content to a recipient communication device that is being utilized by the recipient for non-virtual communication by utilizing an association between a virtual representation of the recipient and an identity of the recipient while concealing the association. Also provided is a method for participating in a virtual environment, the method including: receiving instructions from a limited device not capable of interfacing with the virtual environment; converting the instructions to a virtual environment-compliant format; sending the converted instructions to a virtual environment computer; receiving content from the virtual environment; converting the content to a limited device-compliant content; and sending the converted content to the limited device.

An identification manager provides a user-generated identity of an initiating party during a connection to a destination. The identification manager includes an identity store for storing user-generated identities, and an identity provider associated with the identity store, for retrieving, from the identity store, a user-generated identity of the initiating party, and for providing the retrieved identity to the destination. Prior to delivery of the retrieved identity to the destination, the identity provider may sense connection characteristics, such as the network type and terminal capabilities of the destination party, and adapt the initiating party's identity to the sensed characteristics.The identification manager may also include a provisioning system for users to generate multimedia identities by various mechanisms. Identity provisioning may be performed automatically, as user replies to system initiated IVR calls, MMS messages and/or SMS messages. Additional provisioning mechanisms include a user-initiated provisioning system for users to generate multimedia identities over the Web, as well as a dedicated identity-provisioning client, for generating an identity on the user device or terminal.

There is provided a system having a processor, and a memory having instructions stored therein in a form that is readable by the processor. The instructions, when read by the processor, cause the processor to perform steps of: receiving a first signal that indicates an initiation of a communication from a calling device to a called device; receiving a context parameter of the called device; evaluating the context parameter; and generating a second signal, based on the step of evaluating, to control a routing of the communication.
