Abstract: A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a processing system that analyses, without user intervention, content of a first message directed from equipment of a sending user to equipment of a receiving user, to identify a task. The processing system determines that the receiving user is unable to perform the task according to biometric data of the receiving user. The biometric data is selected from one of heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and combinations thereof. According to the content of the first message and the biometric data obtained from the receiving user, the processing system determines that the task should be delegated to another user, and responsive thereto, provides a second message associated with the task to equipment of the other user. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a processor that can maintain a first virtual task list associated with one of a sending user or a receiving user. A first message originating at equipment of the sending user is received and content of the first message is analyzed to determine a task. Behavior information is obtained associated with one of the sending user, the receiving user or both, and first virtual task list is adjusted to obtain a modified virtual task list according to the content of the first message and the behavior information. A second message is provided to one of the receiving user or another user according to the modified virtual task list. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: A method for digital rights management includes a digital agent for contacting a media host. Media content is compared to a user profile and an identification confidence level is assigned to the media based on the comparison. A digital agent contacts a host of the media based on the identification confidence level, the type of media, and the context of the media. The digital agent requests one or more actions of a media host based on user designations concerning information related to the media. The identification confidence level is generated based on a plurality of user characteristic confidence levels which are generated based on media being analyzed.
