Automatic forwarding of incoming calls based on user interaction with devices

A method performed at a server associated with a service to direct incoming calls over a network, the method comprising:

• assigning a commonly utilized phone number to each of a plurality of computing devices that are each configured with telephony capabilities;
• receiving an indication of active status for one or more of the computing devices among the plurality;
• registering computing devices having active status based on the received indication;
• receiving a real-time incoming call directed to the commonly utilized phone number;
• collecting real-time contextual information that is associated with each of the registered computing devices, in which the real-time contextual information describes current capabilities and locations of registered computing devices and wherein the capabilities of one or more of the registered devices are dynamically reconfigurable;
• grouping registered computing devices based on the collected real-time contextual information;
• analyzing the real-time contextual information collected for the group of registered computing devices;
• and
• forwarding the call to certain registered computing devices in the group and suppressing the call to other registered computing devices in the group based on the analysis of the real-time contextual information.
