Adjacent person specifying apparatus, adjacent person specifying method, adjacent person specifying program, and adjacent person specifying system

An information processing method performed by an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:

• transmitting, by an interface of the information processing apparatus, identification information corresponding to a first person associated with the information processing apparatus to another information processing apparatus when content is generated at the information processing apparatus;
• receiving, by the interface, information indicating a predetermined relationship between the first person and a second person associated with the another information processing apparatus;
• and
• associating, by a processor of the information processing apparatus, identification corresponding to the second person with the content based on the predetermined relationship between the first person and the second person.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer program instructions, which when executed by an information processing apparatus, cause the information processing apparatus to perform a method comprising:

• transmitting identification information corresponding to a first person associated with the information processing apparatus to another information processing apparatus when content is generated at the information processing apparatus;
• receiving information indicating a predetermined relationship between the first person and a second person associated with the another information processing apparatus;
• and
• associating identification corresponding to the second person with the content based on the predetermined relationship between the first person and the second person.

An information processing system comprising:

• a first information processing apparatus that transmits a request including identification information corresponding to a first person associated with the information processing apparatus to a second information processing apparatus when content is generated at the first information processing apparatus;
• and
• the second information processing apparatus that obtains, based on the request, information indicating a predetermined relationship between the first person and a second person, and transmits the information indicating the predetermined relationship to the first information processing apparatus, wherein
• the first information processing apparatus associates identification corresponding to the second person with the content based on the predetermined relationship between the first person and the second person.
