An article for managing communication via a portal based on world wide web, the article comprising: a non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising a plurality of instructions, when executed by a server, result in the server: receiving, via the portal, a message with an identifier of a user, from a device of a person trying to electronically deliver and present the message to the user;identifying the person wherein an access priority, associated with the person, as identified, previously being stored in a database associated with the server, and wherein information regarding the access priority, associated with the person, is from the device of the user; andsetting a process based on Internet protocol to electronically deliver and present the message from the device of the person to the device of the user, via the portal, through contact information of the device of the user, using one or more rules, based on at least the access priority associated with the person retrieved from the database associated with the server,wherein the at least one non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprises instructions, when executed, result in determining availability of the user to receive the message, and sending to the device of the person, information regarding the availability of the user to receive the message,wherein even when the process involves delivering and presenting the message to the device of the user through the contact information of the device of the user, the contact information of the device of the user is not provided to the device of the person,wherein the process allows the message to be delivered from the device of the person to the device of the user via a selected mode of communication from a plurality of different modes of communication, all using the identifier of the user, at least in view of the process being based on Internet protocol, andwherein the plurality of different modes of communication include at least text message and voice call. 6. An article as recited in claim 5, wherein the message from the device of the person is a text message. 7. An article as recited in claim 5, wherein the contact information of the device of the user is a phone number of the user. 8. An article as recited in claim 5, wherein the process to electronically deliver and present the message from the device of the person to the device of the user is also based on a previously- established communication preference. 9. An article as recited in claim 5, wherein the process to electronically deliver and present the message from the device of the person to the device of the user is also based on an activity of the user. 10. An article as recited in claim 5, wherein the message is received from the device of the person via a contact information of the device of the person, andwherein even when the process involves delivering and presenting the message to the device of the user, the contact information of the device of the person is not provided to the device of the user. 11. An article as recited in claim 5, wherein the device of the person is configured to operate at least as a mobile phone. 12. An article as recited in claim 5, wherein the process is also based on a time. 13. An article as recited in claim 5, wherein the process is also based on a period of time. 14. An article as recited in claim 13, wherein the process includes not presenting the message based on the period of time. 15. An article as recited in claim 6, wherein the message is received from the device of the person via a contact information of the device of the person,wherein even when the process involves delivering and presenting the received message to the device of the user, the contact information of the device of the person is not provided to the device of the user,wherein the device of the person is configured to operate at least as a mobile phone, andwherein the process is also based on a period of time. 16. An article as recited in claim 15, wherein the process includes not presenting the message based on the period of time. 17. A server for managing communication via a portal based on world wide web, the server comprising: at least one computing device; andat least one storage device storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one computing device, cause the at least one computing device to: receive, via the portal, a message with an identifier of a user, from a device of a person trying to electronically deliver and present the message to the user;identify the person, wherein information regarding whether the person, as identified, is blocked from accessing the user, previously being stored in a database associated with the server, and wherein the information, regarding whether the person is blocked from accessing the user, is from the device of the user; andset a process based on Internet protocol to electronically deliver and present the received message from the device of the person to the device of the user, via the portal, through contact information of the device of the user, using one or more rules, based on at least the information regarding whether the person is blocked from accessing the user, retrieved from the database associated with the server,wherein the at least one storage device stores instructions that, when executed by the at least one computing device, cause the at least one computing device to determine availability of the user to receive the message, and to send to the device of the person, information regarding the availability of the user to receive the message,wherein even when the process involves delivering and presenting the message to the device of the user through the contact information of the device of the user, the contact information of the device of the user is not provided to the device of the person,wherein the process allows the message to be delivered from the device of the person to the device of the user via a selected mode of communication from a plurality of different modes of communication, all using the identifier of the user, at least in view of the process being based on Internet protocol, andwherein the plurality of different modes of communication include at least text message and voice call. 18.
