A method, apparatus and system for routing changes to information between a plurality of content nodes and a command memory of a content router. Content nodes may be user devices (such as mobile phones) and user accounts (such as email accounts). Content nodes may hold one or more content types such as email, contacts, tasks, events and library items. A command memory centralizes conflict detection, resolution and error handling within a content routing system.

What is claimed is: 1. A content routing system for routing changes to information between a plurality of content nodes and a command memory, the content routing system comprising: store and forward logic comprising: processing logic for: processing an incoming command from a first content node; selecting a set of destination content nodes based on a content type of the incoming command and one or more routing parameters; and generating an outgoing command for each of the selected destination content nodes; and command memory, coupled to the processing logic, for storing the incoming command and the set of outgoing commands; and a connected data set configuration, coupled to the processing logic, for storing the one or more routing parameters in a hierarchical configuration of user devices, user accounts, and content types, where the content types comprise one or more of contacts, events, tasks, emails, and library items. 2. The content routing system of claim 1, further comprising protocol translation logic for translating between a first protocol and a command protocol. 3. The content routing system of claim 2, wherein the protocol translation logic includes a protocol adapter for translating between a common protocol and the command protocol. 4. The content routing system of claim 3, wherein translating between the common protocol and the command protocol includes transforming a message in the common protocol having multiple commands to separate commands in the command protocol. 5. The content routing system of claim 2, wherein translating between the first protocol and the command protocol includes transforming a message in the first protocol having multiple commands to separate commands in the command protocol. 6. The content routing system of claim 2, wherein the protocol translation logic further includes a gateway for translating between the first protocol and a common protocol. 7. The content routing system of claim 2, wherein the protocol translation logic includes: a gateway for translating between the first protocol and a common protocol; and a protocol adapter for translating between the common protocol to the command protocol. 8. The content routing system of claim 3, wherein the protocol adapter includes using a Remote Procedure Calling (RPC) protocol interface. 9. The content routing system of claim 8, wherein the RPC protocol includes an XML-RPC protocol. 10. A computer readable storage medium comprising program code for use in a content routing system including processing logic and a command memory, the content routing system for routing changes to information between a plurality of content nodes and the command memory, the computer readable storage medium comprising: program code for receiving an incoming command from a first content node; program code for storing the incoming command in a command memory associated with the first content node; program code for selecting a set of destination content nodes based on a content type of the incoming command and a routing parameter associated with the destination content node and the content type, wherein the routing parameter is held in a connected data set configuration in a hierarchical configuration of user devices, user accounts, and content types, wherein the content types comprise one or more of contacts, events, tasks, emails, and library items; program code for generating an outgoing command; and program code for storing the outgoing command in the command memory.
