58. The method of claim 48, wherein the receiving component information from the one of the multiple discourse components further comprises:

receiving the component information including face-characterizing information associated with the participant.

59. The method of claim 48, wherein the receiving component information from the one of the multiple discourse components further comprises:

receiving the component information including an IP address or a telephone number or a name or a nickname or a role.

60. The method of claim 48, wherein the retrieving from the data store auxiliary information correlated or provisionally correlated with the received component information further comprises:

retrieving a name associated with or provisionally associated with the participant using the identifier.

61. The method of claim 48, wherein the retrieving from the data store auxiliary information correlated or provisionally correlated with the received component information further comprises:

retrieving a name of an entity, wherein the entity is associated with or provisionally associated with the participant.

62. The method of claim 48, wherein the retrieving from the data store auxiliary information correlated or provisionally correlated with the received component information further comprises:

retrieving an identifier of a location associated with or provisionally associated with the participant.

63. The method of claim 48, wherein the retrieving from the data store auxiliary information correlated or provisionally correlated with the received component information further comprises:

retrieving the auxiliary information from a resource associated with the participant.

64. The method of claim 48, wherein the retrieving from the data store auxiliary information correlated or provisionally correlated with the received component information further comprises:

retrieving the auxiliary information from a resource associated with a third party.

65. The method of claim 48, wherein the retrieving from the data store auxiliary information correlated or provisionally correlated with the received component information further comprises:

retrieving the auxiliary information from a public resource.

66. The method of claim 48, further comprising:

storing the component information to populate a data template associated with the participant.

67. The method of claim 48, further comprising:

storing the auxiliary information to populate a data template associated with the participant.
