calculate a total of user evaluation values corresponding to each of a predetermined number of content selected from the plurality of content displayed within the calendar; and

change the duration of the continuous display time period for the display in accordance with the calculation.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to

control the display to display the simplified form of the content for the duration of the continuous display time period based on the corresponding detected user evaluation value and a plurality of content displayed within the calendar;

determine a content that corresponds to a largest user evaluation value from among the respective content of the plurality of content displayed within the calendar; and

change the duration of the continuous display time period for the display in accordance with the user evaluation value of the detected content.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to

control the display to display the simplified form of the content for the duration of the continuous display time period based on the corresponding detected user evaluation value and a plurality of content displayed within the calendar;

calculate a total of user evaluation values corresponding to each of the of the respective content of the plurality of content displayed within the calendar; and

change the duration of the continuous display time period for the display so that the display is not displayed when the calculated total of the user evaluation values corresponding to each of the respective content of the plurality of content displayed within the calendar on the display is less than a predetermined value, and the display is displayed for either a predetermined duration of a continuous time period or a duration of a continuous time period corresponding to the calculated user evaluation value when the calculated total of the user evaluation values corresponding to the display is larger than or equal to the predetermined value.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to

store a specified user evaluation value;

control the display to display the simplified form of the content for the duration of the continuous display time period based on the corresponding detected user evaluation value and a plurality of content displayed within the calendar;

calculate a total of user evaluation values corresponding to each of the of the respective content of the plurality of content displayed within the calendar; and

change the duration of the continuous display time period for the display so that the display is not displayed when the calculated total of the user evaluation values corresponding to each of the respective content of the plurality of content displayed within the calendar on the display is less than the specified user evaluation, and the display is displayed for either a predetermined duration of a continuous time period or a duration of a continuous time period corresponding to the calculated user evaluation value when the calculated total of the user evaluation values corresponding to the display is larger than or equal to the predetermined value.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to

display a plurality of content at one time on the display;

perform sequential scrolling of the respective displayed content;

detect the user evaluation value of the respective content from the user evaluation value table during the sequential scrolling of the respective displayed content;

stop the sequential scrolling for a time period when a content having a user evaluation value larger than or equal to a predetermined user evaluation value is scroll-displayed; and

reduce a scroll speed of the sequential scrolling when the content having the user evaluation value larger than or equal to the predetermined user evaluation value is not scroll-displayed.

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

creating and storing, by circuitry of the information processing apparatus, a user evaluation value table that includes user evaluation values, each user evaluation value corresponding to a number of executed processes invoked for a respective content and a user-selection probability of the executed processes;
