Advanced Internet users actively create new contexts for the information they receive as part of asychronous communication (and other forms), and then give those contexts form and utility through mechanisms such as email folder filing systems; automated processes; etc.
In a way this concept is also talking about meta data. With the use of filing system we can create new metadata for communication, giving that particular piece of communication a new context simply by filing it away in a particular location.
A simple example would be filing some communication away under 'technical emails.' By doing this you have just interpreted the information, processed it and given it context for future reference - in this case as a technical email.
