Claim One:
1. A method comprising: receiving a notification at a remote server from an electronics device; analyzing, at the remote server, a database having a user data source associated with a user of the electronics device to determine a set of choices in response to the notification, the user data source including information pertaining to the user selected from one of a web-based email, a contact database, data stored on a social networking web-site, an online retail transaction, and combinations thereof, the set of choices including associated actions that the user is predicted to take in relation to the notification; creating, at the remote server, a query based on the set of choices, the query including dichotomous or multiple choice questions arranged in a hierarchical structure to select among the set of choices, the hierarchical structure having a plurality of levels, where a top level of the hierarchical structure corresponds to at least one of the set of choices, and lower levels of the hierarchical structure correspond to the associated actions that the user is predicted to take in relation to the notification; sending the query to the electronics device for presentation to the user; receiving, from the electronics device at the remote server, answers in response to a plurality of the dichotomous or multiple choice questions; traversing, at the remote server, the hierarchical structure, based on the answers in response to the plurality of the dichotomous or multiple choice questions, to reduce the set of choices to a first choice from the set of choices and to identify a first associated action that the user is predicted to take where the first associated action is associated with the first choice; and performing the first associated action, thereby to improve operation of the remote server to predict and implement a selection from the set of choices.
