1. A computer program product comprising:
- a non-transitory computer readable medium storing computer-executable instructions to;
provide an interactive document, via a document manipulation process within a thick client computing environment, including;
a user interface including at least one interactive interview component providing user selectable content choices and user selectable format choices;
receive user input via interaction of a user with the at least one interactive interview component of the interactive document, wherein the user interaction includes capturing live information based on a live person-to-person interaction;
in response to the received user input that is related to information stored in an external data source, retrieve predetermined external data from the external data source;
modify the interactive document utilizing aggregate information aggregated from the received live information and the external data to produce a live-information-based interactive document; and
automatically spawn, via the modified live-information-based interactive document, at least one of a plurality of utilization processes with each respective utilization process based on the aggregate information and including use of at least some content from the user selectable content choices from the live-information-based interactive document, wherein at least some of the utilization processes include causing a physical action related to goods or services, external to the interactive document, and based on the live information from the live-information-based interactive document.

8. A document-centric information system comprising:
-
an information database; an interactive document usable at a user station, the interactive document including; a graphical user interface including an interview pane providing user selectable content choices and user selectable format choices to modify the interactive document, the user interface to operate independent of the information database during the user selectable content choices and user selectable format choice and the user interface to capture live information based on a live verbal person-to-person interaction to result in the modified interactive document being a live-information-based interactive document; and a communication module configured to directly supply updated information to the information database based upon, and after completion of, user modification to the live-information-based interactive document via the user selectable content choices and user selectable format choices; and an utilization mechanism linked to the information database and configured to directly and automatically initiate at least one of a plurality of utilization processes upon the communication module supplying the updated information to the information database, wherein the respective utilization processes include use of at least some content from the user selectable content choices from the live-information-based interactive document and at least some of the utilization processes include causing a physical action related to goods or services, external to the interactive document, and based on the live information in the live-information-based interactive document. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
