US 2009/0024626 A1 · INFORMATION PROCESSING TERMINAL, CONTENT PROVIDING SYSTEM, CONTENT PROVIDING METHOD, AND CONTENT PROVIDING PROGRAM

Abstract

The invention provides a content providing system for making it possible to use URL information retained in a PC terminal from a mobile terminal and store content acquired as the mobile terminal accesses any URL in the PC terminal. The content providing system of the invention is a content providing system including a PC terminal 20, a mobile terminal 30 that can conduct communications with the PC terminal 20, and a Web server 10 for providing content data for the PC terminal 20 through the Internet. The PC terminal 20 has a folder 21 storing the content identifier corresponding to the content data; and an information table 28 made up of a user ID for each mobile terminal and a terminal ID and terminal specifications of the mobile terminal corresponding to the user ID. When access is made from the mobile terminal 30, if the user ID and the terminal ID extracted from the mobile terminal 30 are stored in the information table 28, the mobile terminal 30 is permitted to access the folder 21, and selects the content identifier stored in the folder 21.

Dependent claims

An information processing terminal being capable of conducting a communication with a mobile communication terminal and being provided with content data from a Web server, the information processing terminal comprising:

a content identifier storage unit that stores a content identifier corresponding to the content data;
a table storage unit that stores a table including a user ID for each mobile communication terminal and a terminal ID and a terminal specification of the mobile communication terminal corresponding to the user ID;
an extraction unit that extracts the user ID and the terminal ID of the mobile communication terminal when the information processing terminal is accessed from the mobile communication terminal;
a determination unit that permits the mobile communication terminal to access the content identifier storage unit when the user ID and the terminal ID extracted by the extraction unit are stored in the table;
and
a selection acceptance unit that accepts selection operation from the mobile communication terminal for selecting the content identifier stored in the content identifier storage unit when the determination unit permits the mobile communication terminal to access the content identifier storage unit.
