1. A method for operating an electronic system adapted to process content data files to form a work of communication; receiving instructions from an author of the work of communication including a designation of a set of content data files and a selection of an output form for the work of communication; accessing the designated content data files; determining narrative content from the content data files based upon the selected output form; determining context indicators from the content data files based upon a contextual framework of rules for identifying context indicators; determining inference queries based upon the context indicators and a knowledge base for a person associated with the work of communication; obtaining context data files from a source of content data files using the inference queries; and, prioritizing obtained context data files based upon the significance of the context data file relative to the associated person and providing content data files that have an assigned priority that is greater than a threshold priority for integration with the determined narrative content to form a work of communication; wherein said context data files comprise content data files that are not limited to the designated set of content data files.
