  (4) In the above embodiment, the conversation view 210 of the chat unit 21 includes the content acquisition unit 213. When the message output in the conversation view 210 includes a data type, the content acquisition unit 213 acquires content and summary information (digest) using resource information. This makes it possible to grasp the outline of the content in the message displayed on the timeline screen.

The above embodiment may be modified as follows.
In the above embodiment, the aggregator 241 acquires various resources from the external site 10. Here, the aggregator 241 may filter the content to be acquired. For example, the aggregator 241 holds a key for filtering. Then, the aggregator 241 obtains, from each of the external sites 10, the content filtered corresponding to the key. This can provide filtered content.

  Furthermore, different keys may be held for each client. In this case, in the user terminal 20, the key corresponding to the preference of the client is specified and held in the aggregator 241. Thus, it is possible to provide content according to the client. Furthermore, display can be weighted by using, as a key, content frequently browsed by the user or attribute information on shared content. Also, by providing the key from the server side, it is possible to use the tendency of content that other users often browse.

  In the above embodiment, the content view 240 acquires content from the external site 10. This content may be acquired via the chat server 30. Thereby, the chat server 30 can grasp the usage condition of the content. Furthermore, complicated and computationally expensive processing can be executed on the server side.

  In the above embodiment, the content view 240 of the user terminal 20 includes the aggregator 241. The aggregator 241 acquires various resources from the external site 10 and displays a list on the touch panel display. The aggregator may be provided on the server side of the chat server 30 or the like. Moreover, it is also possible to comprise by the combination of both the server side and the client side. When content is acquired from multiple external sites 10, the interface for acquiring content (API) is different for each site, or there is a difference in RSS specifications, which is a document format in which update information of various websites is simply summarized. Sometimes. Even in such a situation, the chat server 30 can collectively absorb this difference and provide the user terminal 20 with the content after aggregation. You can also combine feeds from different sites and create chronologically sorted feeds. Furthermore, by providing an aggregator on the server side, the processing burden and cost burden of the user terminal 20 can be reduced.

  Furthermore, content may be filtered by an aggregator provided in the chat server 30. In this case as well, there may be a combination of both in the case of realization on the server side and in the case of realization on the client side.

Thus, the chat server 30 can filter the content to be provided to the client. Furthermore, display may be weighted by using, as a key, attribute information related to content frequently viewed by other users or content frequently shared. For example, rankings and recommendations (“recommendations”) of content according to the frequency can be created and provided to the user terminal 20.
Furthermore, the content may be shared with all users who use the chat service. In this case, the content is introduced in rankings or chronological order.

  In the above embodiment, the message storage unit 220 of the user terminal 20 records a message transmitted and received using the chat service. Furthermore, in the message storage unit 32 of the chat server 30, the message of each user terminal 20 is recorded. The place where the message storage unit is provided is not limited to the user terminal 20 or the chat server 30, and may be provided in any one.

  In the above embodiment, the content specified in the content view 240 is shared in the chat or the external social media in the internal sharing unit 250 or the external sharing unit 260. Here, the number of pieces of content that can be shared at one time is not limited to one. For example, multiple contents may be designated at the same time. When sharing in a chat group or a contact, the specified contents are expanded into a plurality of messages and transmitted. Moreover, when sharing in external social media, the designated plurality of contents are divided and individually posted to the external social media server 40. As a result, in message transmission to a chat service or social media, even when there is a limit to one transmission capacity, it is possible to divide a plurality of times and share a plurality of contents efficiently.

  In addition, multiple chat groups, contacts, social media, and combinations thereof may be shared. In this case, the chat unit 21 individually generates and transmits a message or post data to a chat group, a contact, or social media designated by the client. Thereby, a plurality of contents can be efficiently shared among a plurality of groups.

In the above embodiment, the content of the external site 10 is selected using the external site screen 530 and the aggregate screen 540. Here, on each display screen, the content (for example, a moving image) provided from the external site 10 may be searched. In this case, an action bar for selecting content is provided on each display screen (for example, a timeline screen). The action bar holds information for accessing the external site 10, and is provided with a search key input field for searching for content in the external site 10. Then, when a search key is input in the action bar, the external site 10 is accessed, content information corresponding to the search key is acquired, and a search result screen displaying a list of search results is output. Then, in the internal sharing unit 250 and the external sharing unit 260, content sharing processing is performed on the content selected on the search result screen. Thus, contents can be efficiently searched on each display screen.
