Abstract: A method for logging communication includes determining when a target user is active and identifying an access device and private Internet Protocol (IP) address associated with the target user when the target user is active. The method further includes causing the access device to provide traffic information associated with the target user to a logging device.

Abstract: Ring backs are provided for calls. When a call is placed to a called address, a ring back may be provided to a calling address. However, the ring back may be personalized to appeal to the calling address and/or to the called address.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and products are disclosed for providing a ring back to a calling party's communications device. A first call is placed to a called number. An identification sequence is received during the first call. When the first call ends, a second call is placed to a server. The identification sequence is sent to the server during the second call, and the ring back associated with the identification sequence is received. The ring back is stored in memory of the calling party's communications device and retrieved when subsequent calls are made to the called number. The ring back is then presented on the calling party's communications device to indicate the called number is ringing.

Abstract: A report message may be transmitted with collaborated information related to the occurrence of an emergency event. A plurality of devices, such as mobile communications devices, that are out of range of a communications network can communicate via direct communication, such as device-to-device communication, to corroborate characteristics that are indicative of an occurrence of an emergency event. Information related to the occurrence may be collaborated amongst the plurality of devices. A transmitting device, which may be one of the plurality of devices that corroborates characteristics or collaborates information, may generate and transmit the report message comprising the collaborated information. A receiving device may provide the message over a communications network, or the report message may continue to be handed off between devices capable of direct communication, the message eventually reaching a device that is within range of the communications network.

Abstract: A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a server having a controller to transmit a tracking request to a session information retriever for a targeted user of a network with the session information retriever storing session information for users of the network and with the tracking request having identification information associated with the targeted user, transmit a query to the session information retriever for relevant session information associated with the targeted user with the relevant session information being selected by the session information retriever from the session information based at least in part on the identification information associated with the targeted user and with the relevant session information being stored in a single file associated with the targeted user, and receive at least a portion of the relevant session information transmitted from the session information retriever. Other embodiments are disclosed.
