## Abstract

There is provided an information processing apparatus, including an icon display section which displays an icon associated to an action of a user for a purpose of the user, a selection condition acquisition section which acquires a selection condition of the icon displayed by the icon display section, and a display information generation section which generates display information for sharing selected action associated to the icon with another user by using the selection condition acquired by the selection condition acquisition section.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing thereon a program that when executed by a computer causes the computer to execute a method comprising:
controlling a display to display a search condition input area into which an input search condition of a user action, registered in a server, is to be submitted,
to display an action list area including an action list having at least one action matching an input search condition, and
to display a detailed information area for an action selected from the action list;
controlling processing circuitry to register a selected good action in response to a user request in a registration area, wherein the registration area includes at least one of a name of the selected good action, calories burned by performance of the good action and save button image in a new action creation area;
generating a running count value of a total number of how many of the good actions were registered, wherein a good action is consistent with a user goal of achieving a goal weight and wherein a good action includes a good calorie burning activity and a good calorie consumption activity calorie burning activity and a good calorie consumption activity;
displaying a “good” label in association with the running count value of the total number of how many of the good actions were registered; and
displaying the total number near the “good” label on a single screen instance on the display while also displaying an icon for each of the registered good actions including both an icon for the good calorie burning activity and an icon for the good calorie consumption activity, the icons displayed on the single screen instance.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1, further comprising:
displaying the detailed information of the action in the detailed information area upon the user selection of the action from the action list.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1, further comprising:
displaying, in the action list, an action name matching the search condition and calories consumed in the action.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1, further comprising:
displaying the detailed information of the action and a button image for adding the action to the action log.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1, further comprising:
displaying an icon for the action.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1, further comprising:
displaying a user information edit area.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 6, further comprising:
controlling the processing circuitry to edit a privacy setting for sharing the user registered information in response to a user input in the user information edit area.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 7, further comprising: controlling processing circuitry to register a bad action.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 8, further comprising: generating a running count value of how many of the bad actions were registered.

### Claim 10

A method comprising:
controlling a display to display a search condition input area into which a search condition of a user action, registered in a server, is to be submitted, to display an action list area including an action list having at least one action matching an input search condition, and to display a detailed information area for an action selected from the action list;
controlling processing circuitry to register a selected good action in response to a user request in a registration area, wherein the registration area includes at least one of a name of the selected good action, calories burned by performance of the good action and save button image in a new action creation area;
generating a running count value of a total number of how many of the good actions were registered, wherein a good action is consistent with a user goal of achieving a goal weight and wherein a good action includes a calorie burning activity and a good calorie consumption activity;
displaying a “good” label in association with the running count value of the total number of how many of the good actions were registered; and
displaying the total number near the “good” label on a single screen instance on the display, while also displaying an icon for each of the registered good actions including both an icon for the good calorie burning activity and an icon for the good calorie consumption activity, the icons displayed on the single screen instance.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The method of claim 10, further comprising:
displaying the detailed information of the action in the detailed information area upon the user selection of the action from the action list.

### Claim 12 (depends on 10)

The method of claim 10, further comprising:
displaying, in the action list, an action name matching the search condition and calories consumed in the action.

### Claim 13 (depends on 10)

The method of claim 10, further comprising:
displaying the detailed information of the action and a button image for adding the action to the action log.

### Claim 14 (depends on 10)
