receive audio data from the first client device;

receive a designation of a second client device from the first client device;

transcribe the audio data to transcribed text;

generate a message of the message type based at least in part on the message preference received from the first client device, the message comprising the transcribed text;

obtain profile information from the transcribed text using the message type indicator, wherein the profile information comprises at least one of an interest or a preference of a user of the first client device, and wherein the profile information is obtained without input from the first client device;

cause the profile information that is obtained without input from the first client device to be stored to a profile account associated with the user of the first client device and associated with the message type indicator;

cause the profile information, including the profile information that is obtained without input from the first client device and that is stored in the profile account, to be made available for dissemination to a computing device of a contact authorized by of the user; and

transmit the message to the second client device.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the computer-executable module is configured to obtain the profile information from the transcribed text by applying a profile filter to the transcribed text.

15. The non-transitory computer storage of claim 13 , wherein the profile information is caused to be stored to the profile account associated with the user of the first client device without requiring the user of the first client device to log into the profile account.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the computer-executable module is configured to transcribe the audio data to text using a grammar.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the audio data comprises at least one of a voicemail or a dictated text message.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the computer-executable module is further configured to deliver an ad impression based at least in part on the transcribed text to the second client device.

19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the computer-executable module is further configured to transmit the transcribed text to the first client device.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the first client device comprises at least one of a personal digital assistant, a tablet computer, a personal computer, a laptop, or a mobile phone.

21. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the profile is further associated with at least one of a social networking site or a recommendation engine.
