    摘要: To be used with a chat client. A condition DB 3 associates prescribed conditions relating to a message to any channel with processing for such message, and stores this information. An acquisition unit 7, in accordance with a condition and processing, acquires information relating to a channel from a chat client. A determination unit 4, prior to the sending of a message into a channel, determines whether a message meets a condition based on the acquired channel information. An execution unit 5 carries out processing on a message based on determination results and condition, and sends the processed message into a channel via a chat client. An example of a condition is, that message is at least 30 lines or more. An example of processing is, confirming message with a user.

    摘要: A communication support method system to ease make selection of a virtual space in a chat system. Category DB 22, which accumulates URLs and URL categories, is prepared. A URL said in a channel, its category, and the channel name are written to a URL table. The total sum of categories of URLs said in a channel becomes the channel characteristics. Channel characteristics are displayed in a window, etc. at an IRC client. After finding the total sum of URL categories, the weighting of URLs that conform to the chat contents should be immediately increased so that the channel characteristics better reflect the chat contents. For example, this includes increasing the weighting of URLs said by users who spend a long time in the channel or users who are active in sending messages. This also includes increasing the weighting of URLs which result in active chatting after the URL is said.

    摘要: To conduct conversation without confusion in a virtual space while sharing a plurality of topics, send origin channel #CHOCOA, destination channel #meeting and message sending conditions are correlated and given to a chat server or chat client. If, for example, “USER1, USER3, USER4” are designated as sending conditions, only messages from designated users are sent from message origin channel #CHOCOA to destination channel #meeting. Meanwhile, messages from “USER1, USER3, USER4” can be displayed on message origin channel #CHOCOA or not displayed.

    摘要: In an information exchange system in which a user terminal is connected to a network, the system is capable of transmitting and/or receiving messages via the network. A display area displaying messages transmitted and/or received can be increased with an increase in the number of networks connected, thereby causing the efficiency of processes due to reduction of the display area to deteriorate when such a display area is used simultaneously with other applications. The present invention reduces the display area by centralizing messages transmitted and/or received by each network, and displays these messages to an independent area on a time series basis. The system also enables transmission of messages to the network, to which the relevant message is transmitted, by identifying the message centralized for display. As a result, manipulation efficiency of the information exchange system is improved.

    摘要: A profile creation system is provided to enable easy communications within virtual spaces. URLs and categories are stored in the category DB 13, such that the URLs and the categories are correlated to each other. Every time a user sends a URL on a conversation system such as the IRC, a category that corresponds to the URL is identified, and stored in the user data DB 14 such that the category is correlated to the user. By having valid periods in the entries of the user data DB 14, it is possible to create a profile that reflects a user's current status. It is also possible to include rating data in the user data DB 14, along with the category. By processing messages within a channel based on the rating data and user's category, it is possible to make communications within a virtual space easier and more effective.

    摘要: A communication promotion method is provided to appropriately support communication by a plurality of users in different environments. A character 2, operable by an IRC client 5, is linked to or installed in a user terminal 8. An administration device 3 detects a specific event in a channel and sends a specific command to the IRC client 5 via IRC. Commands do not always have to be sent to all of the IRC client 5, and may be different according to the IRC client 5. The user terminal 8 detects the aforesaid command and sends it to the character 2. Characters at each user terminal 8 operate as specified by the command.

    摘要: A message transmitting and receiving apparatus includes a memory device for storing therein a keyword in an IRC and a degree of importance thereof, a unit for detecting an occurrence of a message, and a unit for extracting a keyword from a received message. An importance determining unit determines a degree of a keyword in a received message as stored in the memory device in accordance with whether or not a user of the apparatus has responded to the received message. Thus, keywords and degrees of importance thereof can be dynamically determined.

    摘要: A background image display control system is applied to a chat system in which a server performs a broadcast communication control of character information between a plurality of user computers connected to a channel in a network. The background Image display control system causes each of the plurality of user computers to display an image in a background of chat character strings based on the character information. The background image display control system includes a table storage unit for storing a table indicating relationships between conditions based on states revealable in the chat system and background images, and a display control unit for causing each of the plurality of user computers to display a background image in the background of the chat character strings when a condition corresponding to a state revealed in the chat system corresponds to the background image in the table.

    摘要: A text communication system is that reduces user's burden of typing text messages. An acting device is provided with a dictionary containing rules regarding conversion of text messages, with the dictionary corresponding to one or more communication devices or a user. A command that specifies whether the text message should be converted or not is sent from the communication device via the acting device. Text messages are converted according to the command. It is also possible to configure conversion mode in advance, with the conversion mode corresponding to each communication device, and convert text messages sent and received via the acting device. A user can use the same dictionary from different information devices. There is also less burden of typing text messages. It is even more preferable if the dictionary can be updated automatically according to text messages inputted at the communication terminals, since the user's burden of updating dictionaries is also relieved in this way.
