Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to an information system for exchanging information via a network.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been known an information system including a client having a browser and a web server. In such an information system, the URL (Uniform
Resource information (HTTP) (Hypertext Transport Protocol)
col) or the like, and the web server sends page information (eg, HTML (Hypertext Markup Langua
ge) files etc.). The client receives and analyzes such page information, requests and receives such information from the web server when images, sounds, and other information are linked, and organizes and displays the pages for display. I do.

The page information of a site stored in a web server in such an information system includes, in addition to the content information of the site, value-added information such as an advertisement for leading to another site related to the content information. Some are configured to include. Since such sites are operated with the revenue from providing such value-added information, it is necessary to guide users to increase the number of users who input access instructions to their own sites. It was necessary to make it easier for users to access by requesting ads for the site. For this reason, there is a problem that advertising costs are required.

[0004] The purpose of the present system is to provide an information system capable of providing value-added information and content information of its own site at a reduced cost without directly guiding users to its own site. And

[0005]

According to the information system according to the first aspect of the present invention, which has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, when the user accesses the first server, the final information is obtained. The page information displayed on the client includes the first content information of the first server accessed by the user and the insertion information acquired from the second server. The insertion information includes interface information to be displayed on the client or input from the client, and second content information and value-added information that can be incorporated into the interface information. Therefore, the user can obtain the insertion information only by accessing the first server.

[0006] Therefore, the administrator of the second server sends the added value information and the second content information to the user without directly guiding the user to the second server which is his / her own site as in the related art. Can be sent. Therefore, there is no need to increase the number of user's access instructions input to the own site, and it is not necessary to advertise to other sites. Therefore, the operation cost of the second server can be reduced.

The second content information is, for example, information that the operator of the second server wants to send to the user. In particular, as described in claim 2, for example, link information to another site is provided. And so on. In addition, value-added information is provided to the user, such as text, images, audio, and other information for notification of various information such as products, services, and news, and notification of other sites. Is information that the user wants to send to the user, especially claim 2
As shown in the above, for example, it is preferable to include link information to the provider. In this way, the user can be guided to the linked site.

[0008] For example, a content information provider (hereinafter, referred to as a content information provider) that provides first content information to a site of a first server.
The creator) registers the link information and notification information to the own site as the second content information in the second server, so that the user can be guided to the own site. Therefore, the creator can easily guide the user to his / her site, and the content information of his / her site can be seen by many users. In addition, by providing link information to the provider of the value-added information, the user can be easily guided to his / her own site.

In particular, if the second content information can be provided via a network, the second content information can be easily registered (stored) in the second server. In addition, the provider of the value-added information can easily register the value-added information to be provided to the user in the second server.

[0010] Then, as described in claim 4, the first
At least any two of the content information, the value-added information, and the second content information may be related information. For example, if the first content information and the value-added information are related information,
It is possible to obtain the first content information and the value-added information related to the first content information simply by accessing the server. In addition, the first content information and the second
If the content information is related information, the user can obtain the second content information related to the first content information only by accessing the first server. Therefore, it is possible to easily move to a page having related information or to easily obtain related information. In addition, the creator, for example, may create the first
By simply configuring the page information by including the insertion instruction information as claimed in claim 1, the second content information and the value-added information related to the first content information are incorporated into its own page information. Can be displayed on the client. Therefore, an added value can be added to the information value of the first content information of the user, and the value of the first content information can be increased. Therefore, the creator is willing to create page information including the insertion instruction information in his / her own page and store the page information in the first server. When the second content information and the value-added information are a set of a plurality of pieces of information, a part of the pieces of information may be related information, or the whole of the pieces of information may be related information. In particular, when the second content information includes a plurality of pieces of link information, each link may be a link to related information.

In order to make the first content information and the value-added information or the first content information and the second content information relevant as described above, for example,
The second server may acquire the first content information from the first server, analyze the content of the first content information, and provide related second content information and value-added information. However, as described in claim 6, the creator previously stores the first instruction in the insertion instruction information in the page information.
The second server may provide a second content information or a value-added information according to the parameter. In this way, the second content information and value-added information according to the intention of the creator are added to the first content information of the user and displayed on the client.

[0012] The acquisition parameter described in claim 6 is not limited to the information relating to the content of the second content information or the value-added information requested by the second server, and may be various information. . For example, information on the number of requested information, the order of the information, and the like may be used as the acquisition parameter. The second content information acquisition parameter and the value-added information acquisition parameter are:
They may be described as different parameters or may be described as the same parameter.

[0013] In this way, the client can display the first content information and the interface information / value-added information / second content information as insertion information. Can be considered. In other words, the user inputs or automatically generates an action for the insertion information, acquires the second content information or the value-added information, and displays the second content information or the value-added information incorporated in the interface information.
In this way, the information displayed can be changed according to the action. In order to automatically generate an action, for example, the action may be performed at a predetermined time in the client.

[0014] In this way, according to the action of the user, only the second content information or the value-added information can be acquired, incorporated into the interface information, and displayed. Therefore, it is not necessary to request the second server for the interface information each time, and the transfer amount of the information can be reduced. In particular, the interface information may include images, buttons, other UI (User Interface) components, and the like, and in such a case, the transfer amount can be significantly reduced. Therefore, the user can immediately obtain the information corresponding to the action, and the second server does not need to provide the interface information, and the load on the server is reduced. Note that the requested second content information or value-added information may request the client to obtain a difference from the acquired portion in response to the action. In this way, the amount of information transferred can be further reduced. The action for the user's insertion information is input by, for example, clicking the mouse on the client or inputting characters from the keyboard.

[0015] Such a client acquisition and display process can be performed by a program or the like provided in the client in advance.
The interface information may include control instruction information for performing such acquisition display processing, and the client may perform processing based on the control instruction information.
With this configuration, even if the form of the insertion information is changed, the second server only includes the control instruction information for displaying the insertion information in the form in the interface information,
It is possible to cause the client to appropriately execute the acquisition display processing. That is, the data format and provision method of the insertion information,
It is easy to change what kind of processing is performed for what kind of action.

The second server provides the insertion information in this manner, and it is preferable to record a provision history of the insertion information provided to the client as described in claim 9. In this way, it is possible to record which insertion information has been provided and how much. As the provision history, the above-mentioned acquisition parameter and the reception date and time may be stored. For example, as described in claim 10, a user or a client to which the insertion information is provided is specified. It may include the provider specifying information and information related to the date and time when the insertion information was provided. In this way, the second server can record which insertion information was provided to which user or client and when. By recording the provision history of the insertion information in this way, it is possible to later grasp what kind of insertion information has been accessed by what client, and what kind of insertion information has been provided later.

Preferably, the second server detects a user's selection of a link and stores a history of the selected link. In this way, it is possible to record which link has been selected (eg, clicked, etc.). Claim 1
As shown in FIG. 2, the history of the selected link may include link selector identification information for identifying the user or client who has selected the link, and the date and time when the link was selected. In this way, it is possible to record in the second server which user or client has selected which link when. Therefore, by analyzing the history of the recorded links, it is possible to know which link selection number is large, which time zone the link selection number is large, and the like.

By analyzing the recorded history as described in claims 9 to 12, it can be used as a material for marketing to a provider of value-added information or for designing interface information, for example. Can be. The information systems according to the first to twelfth aspects have the above-described effects by being configured by the server according to the thirteenth aspect and the client according to the fourteenth aspect. That is, according to the server described in claim 13,
Insert information can be provided, and the client according to claim 14 can acquire and display page information including the first content information and the insert information.

In addition, as shown in claim 15, claim 1
The functions for realizing each function of the second server described in any one of Items 1 to 12 on a computer can be provided, for example, as a program activated by the computer. In the case of such a program, for example, it is recorded on a computer-readable recording medium such as a floppy (registered trademark) disk, a magneto-optical disk, a CD-ROM, or a hard disk, and is loaded into a computer system as needed and activated. Can be used. Further, since each function may constitute an information system as a whole, each function may be realized by a plurality of computers. That is, the second server may be configured with a plurality of computers by dividing the function, and may function as the second server as a whole.

[0020] Further, as shown in claim 16, claim 8
The control instruction information of the interface information described in Nos. To 12 can be, for example, a program activated by a computer. In the case of such a program, for example,
Floppy disk, magneto-optical disk, CD-ROM,
It can be used by recording it on a computer-readable recording medium such as a hard disk, loading it into a computer system as needed, and starting up.

As Z, a download request is made to the insertion information server 20 for added value information (corresponding to S43).

If there is a request for added value information (S350: YES), the insertion information server 20 proceeds to S360.
Then, in response to the request, value-added information related to the artist name XYZ is extracted from the value-added information database and transmitted (corresponding to S53).

Then, the user client 30a executes S1
At 60, the value-added information is received and stored.
At 70, the inserted content information and the value-added information stored at S140 and S160 are incorporated into an applet and displayed. The display of this applet is as shown in the interface information display section 120 of FIG.

The interface information display section 120 includes:
An added value information display section 121 for incorporating and displaying added value information at the top is provided.
1 is the artist XY received as value-added information
Link 121c to an information site related to the image 121a of Z and the advertisement image 121b related to the artist XYZ
Is displayed.

Below the value-added information display section 121, there is provided an artist name display section 122a for displaying the artist name specified by the acquisition parameter. In this part, a previous link request action input section 122b capable of inputting an action (click) for requesting the previous inserted content information and a next link input action section 122b capable of inputting an action (click) for requesting the next inserted content information A link request action input unit 122c is provided.

Further below, an item display section 123 in which the items are arranged in the horizontal direction, a link destination name display section 124 in which the names of the link destination sites included in the inserted content information are arranged in the vertical direction, There is provided a link destination content display section 125 comprising a matrix indicating whether or not each link has information on each item.

In this manner, the creator content information display section 110 displaying the creator content information 92 accessed by the user A and uploaded by the creator A, and the inserted content related to the creator content information 92 are provided to the browser 60. Interface information display unit 1 incorporating information and value-added information
20 is displayed. Therefore, in order to send value-added information and inserted content information to the user client 30,
This information can be sent to the user client without directing the user to a site having such information.

In the insertion information server 20, S3 in FIG.
When there is an access from the user client 30 as in 20, S340, and S360, the access content is stored in the content history database. The content history database records the content of the request, the date and time of the request, and the address of the requesting user client 30. By analyzing the recorded content history database, it is possible to grasp the trend of the user.

Then, in the user client 30a,
For example, the previous link request action input unit 12 shown in FIG.
When the applet detects an action of requesting insertion content information or requesting value-added information, such as when the user clicks the 2b or the next link request action input unit 122c, the applet that generates the interface information display unit 120 is Instead of requesting, only the inserted content information or the value-added information is requested and incorporated into the interface information display unit 120 for display.

Such a process will be described with reference to FIG. It should be noted that the insertion information server 20 into the request by this processing
Is performed by the processing described with reference to FIG. 5 as shown on the right side of FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, when there is an action requesting the inserted content information in the user client 30a (S180: YES), the inserted content information corresponding to the requested action is inserted into the insertion information server 2.
0 and receives the request (S190, S20
0), and incorporated and displayed in the display interface 120 (S210). Similarly, if there is a request action for the value-added information (S220: YES), a download request of the value-added information corresponding to the requested action is made to the insertion information server 20 and received (S230, S240).
The display is incorporated into the interface information display unit 120 (S250). For example, when the next link request action input unit 122c in FIG.
180: YES), the artist name is XYZ, the number of pieces of information to be obtained is eight, and the items to be obtained are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 1.
The insertion content information is requested on the assumption that the number of already acquired information is 1, 12, 13, and 14 (S190). Upon receiving this request, the insertion information server 20 (S330: YES) extracts and transmits the next eight pieces of insertion content information in response to the request from the insertion content information database (S34).
0). The user client 30a that has received the inserted content information incorporates and displays the received inserted content information in the interface information display unit 120 (S
210). Therefore, the link names of the next eight insertion content information items are displayed on the link name display section 124,
Whether or not there is information on the item in the item display section 123 regarding the link destination is displayed on the link destination content display section 125.

Therefore, when such an action is performed, the content of the interface information display section 120 is updated by requesting only the inserted content information or the added value information without requesting the interface information again. Further, for example, when the next insertion content information is requested as described above, it is not necessary to request the value-added information. Therefore, the displayed image 121a or the like is requested to the insertion information server 20 every time there is an action. You don't have to.
Therefore, the communication amount can be reduced, the load on the insertion information server 20 can be reduced, and the update of the insertion content information and the value-added information in the user client 30 can be performed at high speed.

Even when such an action is taken, the insertion information server 20 records the above-mentioned information in the content history database. By analyzing the recorded content history database, the trend of the user can be grasped. Therefore, it can be used as marketing data.

When the action of requesting the link is detected, for example, when the user client 30a clicks one link in the link destination name display section 124 in FIG. 4 (S260 in FIG. 7). ), And requests information for displaying the link destination on the browser 60 by transmitting the link destination ID of the link included in the inserted content information (S270). The insertion information server 20 that has received the request (S370: YES) transmits the received link destination I
The link destination address corresponding to D is extracted from the inserted content information database, and link destination information including information (script) for accessing the address is generated and transmitted to the user client 30a (S38).
0). The user client 30a receiving the link destination information in S280, according to the script in S290,
A new window of the browser 60 is displayed to access the web server 10b at the link destination address (FIG. 2).
Page information is received from the web server 10b and displayed (corresponding to S7 in FIG. 2). And
The processing of the user client returns to S180 of FIG. 5, and the processing of the insertion information server 20 is S31 shown in FIGS. 5 and 6.
Return to 0.

When receiving the request for the link destination information (S380), the insertion information server 20 associates the requested link destination ID with the requested time and the address of the request source, and inserts the inserted content information. Store in database. Therefore, it is possible to read out the inserted content information database to know which inserted content information was selected by which client and when. Therefore, the contents of the inserted content information database can be used as information for marketing or the like.

In the above embodiment, the history is recorded in the content history database, but the recorded history may be used when extracting information to be transmitted to the client. For example, S340 and S36 in FIG.
0, when extracting the inserted content information or the value-added information, the content history database is referred to, and the client of the address requesting the inserted content information or the value-added information requests the inserted content information or the added-value information in the past. Information other than the value information may be preferentially extracted.
In this way, new inserted content information and value-added information can always be transmitted to each client.

As shown in FIG. 8, the contents of the content history database and link history database are evaluated as rating results, and the creator and the added value information shown in FIG. You may make it provide to the provider to the information server 20. This allows the creator or the like to know which site has been accessed and how much.

In the above embodiment, the inserted content information is recorded in the inserted content information database in advance. However, it is preferable that the content can be registered via the Internet 50. For example, as shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 2, the creator of each site stores the information corresponding to the name and URL of its own site and the ID of the item provided in the inserted content information database in the inserted information server 20, respectively. Is transmitted via a registration web page (not shown) provided from the insertion information server 20. The insertion information server 20 receives this information and stores it in the insertion content information database. In this way, the creator itself can update the inserted content information database of the inserted information server 20 at any time in accordance with the update of its own site. Similarly, it is preferable that the added value information can be registered in the added value information database 20 via the Internet 50. In this way, the provider of the value-added information can easily provide the value-added information.

In the present embodiment, a personal computer is assumed as the user client 30, and the browser 60 and the displayed page information 100 are displayed in a format that is easy for the user to see when displayed on the display device of the personal computer. However, for example, the user client 30 may be a mobile phone or an information terminal equipped with a browser.
