Abstract
A method and system for selectively communicating digital content is disclosed. For one embodiment of the invention, digital content communications of a user are analyzed. A rule in regard to communicating the digital content of the user is formulated based upon the analysis of the digital content communications. The rule is then presented to the user and suggested as an additional rule to be applied to the communication of the digital content. Upon acceptance by the user, the rule is implemented and applied to the digital content. For alternative embodiments of the invention, the rule, based upon the analysis of the digital content communications, may be automatically implemented. For one embodiment of the invention, the rule governs whether or not digital content is forwarded to the user'"'"'s mobile device.
