Claim:
1. A method for binding an entity's identifiers in a multi-domain environment, the method comprising: providing a first presence identifier in a first domain and a second presence identifier in a second domain of the entity, providing a binder server under processor control to bind together the first and second presence identifiers, at the binder server having a binding process for: sending a stimulus in association with the first presence identifier; receiving, by the binding process, information associated with a response to the stimulus, the response associated with the second presence identifier, the first domain being distinct from the second domain; analyzing, by the binding process, the stimulus and the received response information to associate the first presence identifier with the second presence identifier; creating, by the binding process, a cross-domain identifier that logically binds together the first and second presence identifiers, the cross-domain identifier providing access to some non-identity information associated with the first presence identifier, the cross-domain identifier providing access to some non-identity information associated with the second presence identifier; and providing, by the binding process, the cross-domain identifier to a process distinct from the binding process.
