Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To automatically update a user's virtual world avatar to provide a more accurate representation of the user's current real world status or activity.SOLUTION: A cellular or wireless mobile device includes a one or more sensors, and a processor configured with software to: receive data from the one or more sensors, calendar data and device settings; compare the sensor, calendar and device settings data and an authorization level of a requesting user to avatar selection criteria; and select an avatar on the basis of the comparison. By correlating sensor data, calendar data and device settings to a user's current status, the avatar selection criteria enable a processor to automatically select an avatar that reflects the user's current status. Others then can be informed of the user's current status by accessing the user's avatar.
