According to a broad aspect of a preferred embodiment of the invention, telephone calls, data and other multimedia information is routed through a hybrid network which includes transfer of information across the internet utilizing telephone routing information and internet protocol address information. The hybrid network includes an intelligent network solution which allows hybrid network service users to maintain the same experience and have access to the same information regardless of where or how they access the network. The solution avoids synchronicity management problems associated with replicating user data over a worldwide network.
