Abstract: Methods and systems in a telecommunications network for dynamically providing calling party information to a called party from a calling party. A transfer of calling party information can be initiated from the calling party to the called party utilizing a caller identification mechanism in communication with one or more customer premise equipment devices associated with the telecommunications network. Thereafter, the calling party information can be dynamically displayed for the called party via the caller identification mechanism on a display screen of the customer premise equipment device, thereby permitting the called party to take action regarding the calling party information independent of prior or current telecommunications activities. The calling party information can be stored in a memory location for later retrieval by the called party if the called party does not immediately respond to the transfer of calling party information from the calling party to the called party.

Abstract: An apparatus in one example has: a network having a plurality of interconnected nodes; each of the nodes having a respective local reporter daemon and a storage operatively coupled thereto; at least one of the nodes having an editor daemon; an event broadcast message that is originated by a respective software component in a respective node in which an event occurred, the event broadcast message being sent to all local reporter daemons; information related to the event stored in a respective storage of a respective node by a respective software component; reports sent by the local reporter daemons to the editor daemon, the reports containing information related to the occurrence of the event; and a news story formed by the editor daemon from the received information.
