Next, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram of an integrated portal site providing system according to the present invention.

As shown, in the system for providing an intensive portal site according to the present invention, a plurality of member computers 10 and a server 14 are connected to the Internet 22.

In addition, the Internet 22 is connected to the Internet shopping mall 11, the local shopping mall 12, and the storage 13.

In the present invention, the Internet 22 refers to a computer communication network connecting the world using the Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol (TCP / IP) protocol.

Here, the member computers are computers 10 used by those who have registered as members on a website operated by a company that provides an intensive portal site according to the present invention. Each member is considered to live in a different area.

In addition, the member computer 10 is provided with a web browser, which is software that can read a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) document, which is a standard document of the web, and communicate with a server using a Common Gateway Interface (CGI).

The server 14 generally refers to software for providing a web service in an environment connected to the Internet 22, but is used in the present invention as a concept including a computer system for executing the software. Here, the server 14 is provided in a company providing an intensive portal site.

The server 14 is a computer included in a company that provides an intensive portal site, and includes a web server 16 and a database 17.

The web server 16 enables access through the Internet 22 using a web browser, controls and manages various databases provided in the server, allows users to register as members, and the members of the service of the present invention. Can be used.

The server 14 is connected to the other Internet shopping mall 11, each of the local shopping malls 12 and the storage boxes 13 on the Internet.

Figure 2a is a view showing a real space and a virtual space in the present invention.

First, describing the real space, the real space includes the residence 30R where the member actually lives, the local malls 12a-12f and the storage area 13 around the residence.

Collector 13 is connected to the local shops to collect the goods requested by the local shops for delivery, and operates a shuttle bus 34 to deliver the goods sold by each local shop.

In the intensive portal site providing system according to the present invention, the member of the website of the server has three spaces in the virtual space: ① virtual residence space, ② local space, and ③ external space.

First, a virtual residence space is a space that is created in a virtual space when users who access the server on the Internet join as a member and have a residence in a virtual space as if a member has a residence where he lives in the real world. . Thus, members can move to their own cyberspace.

These virtual residence spaces are allocated to new administrative districts in the virtual space and have new addresses based on the address of the member's actual residence.

However, since the home address of the virtual residence space is generated based on the address of the actual residence, one family with the same residence in the real world has the same cyber space address.

Members' IDs are given based on these cyberspace addresses, and these IDs are used as representative IDs of those who live in the same place. In addition, the member's password is the key to enter the house.

In addition, the family member is given a separate ID in addition to the representative ID. Therefore, the virtual residence space has a space that is allowed access and a space that is not allowed.

In an adult-oriented space, for example, a family member who is a minor is regulated.

In addition, since the ID in the virtual residence space is generated based on the actual residence, members can always use the ID freely regardless of whether the ID overlaps with others.

On the other hand, you can decorate your own virtual space to your liking. 2B is a diagram illustrating an example of a virtual residence space.

The member can bring TV 31a, audio 31b, video 31c, book 31d, and the like into his space. Here, the TV 31a is connected to the Internet broadcasting station, so that the program screened on the Internet broadcasting station can be viewed, and the music can be heard through the audio 31b.

Using MP3, you can listen to only your favorite songs and download them. In addition, the user can select and watch a movie by using a VOD.

On the other hand, if you put the mailbox into the virtual space, you can check the email that came to you. And, as in the real world, it is possible to raise a pet 31e.

In addition, when moving to another place in the cyberspace can be entered through the doorway (31f), can see the banking business or office work.

Therefore, the member can perform both the things that can be done in reality in the virtual living space and the things that are only possible in the cyber space, for example, having a cyber secretary or raising a cyber pet.

Second, the local space is the space connected with each business area around the member's actual residence. Members will be able to benefit directly from neighboring businesses connected to the Internet by visiting local spaces on the Internet. For example, if you are connected to a nearby large food or restaurant, you will be able to receive food and order food from the restaurant.

In addition, the local space allows members to have goods loaded around the actual residence of the members so that members can quickly receive the goods purchased.

The goods-carrying vehicle gathers at the storage place at a certain time, loads the ordered goods, and travels to the residence at a fixed time.

Third, the external space is a cyber shopping space. This is a space that can be used to overcome the limitations of distance by constructing the commercial area that is not located near the residential area.

For example, even if there are no large clothing stores around or there is no internet connection, other shopping malls can be connected so that goods can be easily purchased at home.

In addition, you can enjoy cultural activities located outside the residential area, so you can buy movie tickets.

3 is a diagram illustrating a database structure of a server.

As shown in FIG. 3, the server 14 includes a virtual residence space database 400 for a virtual residence space, a local space database 500 for a local space, an external space database 600 for an external space, and a storage box. A collection database 700 is provided.

Cyber address DB 410, the member ID and password of the member and the member DB 420 that stores the member's information, such as service usage records of the present invention, automatically registered with the list of other Internet sites associated with the service It is provided with a third party registration DB (430) that stores the ID and password of the service user.

The local spatial database 500 includes a local mall DB 510 for registering and managing a company connected to the service among the malls of the region where the member actually resides, and a usage record DB for storing records of the members using these malls on the network. 520 and a payment record DB 530 for storing a record such as a price and a service fee according to the use of the local shopping mall based on the usage record DB 520.

The external space database 600 stores the types of general Internet shopping malls that are connected to the service and the network as an external company that is not registered in the local mall DB 510 described above. And a payment record DB 630 for recording and managing a usage fee and a service fee based on the shopping mall use record DB 620 for recording a transaction with a shopping mall company.

The collection database 700 stores a list of items used by each member, and a collection item DB 710 that stores a list of items such as the type and quantity of goods loaded in the storage area in cooperation with neighboring local stores. Use goods DB 720, which provides data for the next transaction, and a list of items to be loaded and the number of items to be loaded and the list of items to be loaded in a traveling vehicle that travels around the actual residence at a certain time DB 730 is provided.
