         28 . The computer server of  claim 21 , wherein said processor is further operable to provide the content with an additional link to additional information. 
     
     
         29 . A method, for use with a plurality of databases, a communication device having an associated address, and a network, said method comprising:
 creating, via a processor, an information site from the plurality of databases;   receiving, via the processor, at the information site via the network from the communication device, information related to a subject matter;   determining, via the processor, a geographic location of the communication device based on the associated address;   determining, via the processor, a link related to advertising information and being based on the geographic information; and   providing, via the processor, the link and content, based on the subject matter, from the information site to the communication device.   
     
     
         30 . The method of  claim 29 , wherein said creating, via a processor, comprises creating via a processor that is included within one of the group consisting of a personal digital assistant, a portable device, a web browser, a cell phone, a wireless phone, an electronic billboard, a website, a pager, a television, a web-based television device, an internet enabled device or appliance, a health monitoring device, a kiosk displaying information related to one or more subject areas, a terminal in a library, an Internet radio application, and a job related web site. 
     
     
         31 . The method of  claim 30 , wherein said receiving information comprises receiving the information related to a subject matter from the communication device wirelessly. 
     
     
         32 . The method of  claim 31 , wherein said providing content and the link comprises providing the content with an additional link to additional information. 
     
     
         33 . The method of  claim 29 , wherein said receiving information comprises receiving the information related to a subject matter from the communication device wirelessly. 
     
     
         34 . The method of  claim 33 , wherein said providing content and the link comprises providing the content with an additional link to additional information.
