The present invention provides for efficient delivery of information between
parties associated with a voice call. When a caller initiates a call to the called
party, infrastructure is in place to access information associated with the caller
and called party and exchange the information between the multimedia clients associated
with the parties. The delivery of the information may be fully automated, or may
require authorization by the parties owning the information. Further, information
delivery may take place in multiple stages, wherein automated information is initially
provided and on-demand information, which requires authorization by the party owning
the information, is sent to the other party's multimedia client upon receiving
such authorization. Preferably, the address to a location capable of providing
the information is initially delivered to the multimedia clients, which can request
the information based on the address as desired by the parties involved in the call.
