Alright, now may I receive some work flows? I do not need personal
data.

Let me give you example of a workflow in my system within Emacs:

- I click s-c and minibuffer opens to "Search for contact: " then I
  enter some data, like "John Kampala" to find all "Johns" in
  "Kampala"

- I am faced with helm selection of various people named John in city
  of Kampala, I may narrow selection to particular person

- then I click TAB and I am faced with selection to open files that
  belong to specific contact, or to open all email conversation with
  the contact, or to send SMS

- then I choose to send SMS, and choose one mobile number among two of
  them, and SMS is sent and recorded

I will appreciate workflow description for Hyperbola of other people.
