UNIFIED ACCESS AND MANAGEMENT OF EVENTS ACROSS MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS AND ASSOCIATED CONTACTS THEREOF

1 . A method of a unified user interface to facilitate communication with a user via multiple applications via a mobile device, the method, comprising:

depicting a representations of multiple contacts accessible at the device;

wherein, the multiple contacts that are depicted in the unified user interface is determined based on frequency of communications;

responsive to detecting a selection of a given representation associated with a contact, presenting modes of communication channels represented by graphical indicators in the unified user interface.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising,

providing a user interface feature in the unified user interface enabling an event to be initiated with the contact using a preferred mode of communication of the contact, in response to the selection of the given representation of the contact;

depicting another indication in the unified user interface that the contact is a currently active contact who is subject of the communication event.

3 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising, initiating a communication session with the contact via a communication channel associated with a graphical indicator which was selected or acted upon.

4 . The method of claim 2 , wherein, recent events associated with the contact is depicted in the unified user interface; the recent events being depicted in the form of one or more of, updates, notifications or contents of communication.

5 . The method of claim 2 , wherein, the multiple contacts are selected from an aggregation of contacts or friends of the user across multiple applications.

6 . The method of claim 2 , wherein, the multiple contacts are selected from an aggregation of contacts of the user stored on multiple devices

7 . The method of claim 2 , wherein, the multiple contacts that are depicted in the single interface is further determined based on a user-defined grouping or membership in a community.

8 . A system of a unified user interface to facilitate communication with a user via multiple communication channels, the system, comprising:

means for, depicting a representations of multiple contacts accessible at the device;

means for, monitoring messaging patterns with respect to the multiple contacts;

wherein, the multiple contacts that are depicted in the unified user interface is determined based on the messaging patterns;

means for, detecting a selection of a given representation associated with a contact,

means for, presenting modes of communication channels represented by graphical indicators in the unified user interface;

means for, determining a preferred mode of communication of the contact;

means for, providing a user interface feature in the unified user interface enabling an event to be initiated with the contact using the preferred mode of communication.

9 . The system of claim 8 , further comprising, means for, computing communication statistics from the messaging patterns.

10 . The system of claim 8 , wherein, the messaging patterns include frequency of contact.

11 . The system of claim 8 , further comprising:

means for, aggregating the multiple contacts from contacts or friends of the user across multiple applications.
