[Business card exchange]
FIG. 4 illustrates a method for providing business card information according to an embodiment of the present technology.

At step 410, the business card information provision method 400 is started at the user terminal 120. When the user terminal 120 and the user terminal 130 are located in the vicinity, it is determined that the user terminal 120 and the user terminal 130 are located within a certain distance or less using a position information service of a smartphone using a GPS (Global Positioning System). The user terminal 120 and the user terminal 130 may communicate with each other by near field communication such as Bluetooth (trademark). At that time, in order to prevent erroneous transmission, etc., business cards only when both terminals are set to business card exchange mode, or only when business cards to be exchanged are selected and confirmed when both terminals are set to business card exchange mode. It may be possible to transmit and receive records.

Next, at step 420, the user terminal 120 transmits part of the information of the selected business card record of its own. In the user terminal 120, any one of the business card record 212, the business card record 214, and other business card records is arbitrarily selected. Send the business card record 212 for the purpose of business card exchange on work, and transmit the business card record 214 for the purpose of business card exchange with friends of the hobby etc. Can. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the business card record 214 is selected. As part of the information of the business card record, for example, a user ID, a business card number, a name or a nickname, and an image are transmitted from the user terminal 120, received by the user terminal 130 and displayed. The user terminal 120 may display a part of the information of its own business card record 212 and the business card record 214 in the content area 340 of the screen display 300 of the user terminal 120 as an icon to select one of them. Only part of the information on the business card record may be transmitted, or all of it may be transmitted. When all the information of the business card record is transmitted, the entire information may be displayed on the user terminal 130 or a part thereof may be displayed.

Similarly, in the user terminal 130, the user terminal 130 transmits part of the information of the selected business card record. In the user terminal 130, any one of the business card record 222, the business card record 224, and other business card records is arbitrarily selected. Send the business card record 222 for the purpose of business card exchange at work, send the business card record 224 for the purpose of business card exchange with friends of the hobby, etc. Can. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the business card record 224 is selected. As part of the information of the business card record, for example, a user ID, a business card number, a name or a nickname, and an image are transmitted from the user terminal 130, received by the user terminal 120 and displayed. The user terminal 130 may display a part of the information of its own business card record 222 and the business card record 224 in the content area 340 of the screen display 300 of the user terminal 130 as an icon and select one of them. Only part of the information on the business card record may be transmitted, or all of it may be transmitted.
