Abstract

A method and apparatus for processing contact information, the method comprising: displaying a list of contacts on a display of a wireless terminal; determining a first contact from the list of contacts in response to a selection by a user; obtaining a web log address and an online shop address of the first contact; obtaining, from a network service, a first content corresponding to the web log address and the online shop address of the first contact; and displaying the first content on a first area of the display, the first content being dynamically updated.

Claims (67)

1. A wireless terminal, comprising:

a display;

one or more processors; and

a memory storing programming for execution by the one or more processors, the programming including instructions for:

displaying a list of contacts on a display of the wireless terminal;

determining a first contact from the list of contacts in response to a selection by a user;

determining a second contact from the list of contacts in response to another selection by the user;

obtaining, from a network service, a first content corresponding to the first contact;

obtaining, from the network service, a second content corresponding to the second contact;

displaying the first content on a first area of the display; and

displaying the second content on a second area of the display, wherein the first area of the display is different from the second area of the display, the first content and the second content are dynamically updated.

2. The wireless terminal of claim 1 , wherein the first area of the display is designated for the first contact, and the second area of the display is designated for the second contact.

3. The wireless terminal of claim 1 , wherein obtaining the first content corresponding to the first contact and obtaining the second content corresponding to the second contact, further comprise:

logging into a location of the network service in accordance with the first contact, and obtaining the first content corresponding to the first contact; and

logging into a location of the network service in accordance with the second contact, and obtaining the second content corresponding to the second contact.

4. The wireless terminal of claim 1 , wherein a size and arrangement of the first area of the display is determined according to actual needs of the user.

5. The wireless terminal of claim 4 , wherein a size and arrangement of the second area of the display is determined according to actual needs of the user.

6. The wireless terminal of claim 1 , wherein a size and arrangement of the first area is determined according to a size of the first content corresponding to the first contact.

7. The wireless terminal of claim 6 , wherein a size and arrangement of the second area is determined according to a size of the second content corresponding to the second contact.

8. The wireless terminal of claim 1 , wherein obtaining, from a network service, a first content corresponding to the first contact comprises:

obtaining dynamically updated information corresponding to the first contact; and

displaying the dynamically updated information on the first area of the display.

9. The wireless terminal of claim 8 , wherein obtaining, from a network service, a second content corresponding to the second contact comprises:

obtaining dynamically updated information corresponding to the second contact; and

displaying the dynamically updated information on the second area of the display.

10. A method for processing contact information performed by a wireless terminal, the method comprising:

displaying a list of contacts on a display of the wireless terminal;

determining a first contact from the list of contacts in response to a selection by a user;

determining a second contact from the list of contacts in response to another selection by the user;

obtaining, from a network service, a first content corresponding to the first contact;

obtaining, from the network service, a second content corresponding to the second contact;

displaying the first content on a first area of the display and displaying the second content on a second area of the display, wherein the first area of the display is different from the second area of the display, the first content and the second content are dynamically updated.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first area of the display is designated for the first contact, and the second area of the display is designated for the second contact.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the obtaining the first content comprising:

logging into a location of the network service in accordance with the first contact, and obtaining the first content corresponding to the first contact; and

logging into a location of the network service in accordance with the second contact, and obtaining the second content corresponding to the second contact.

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein a size and arrangement of the first area is determined according to a size of the first content corresponding to the first contact.

14. The method of claim 10 , wherein a size and arrangement of the second area is determined according to a size of the second content corresponding to the second contact.

15. The method of claim 10 , wherein obtaining, from a network service, a first content corresponding to the first contact comprises:

obtaining dynamically updated information corresponding to the first contact; and

displaying the dynamically updated information on the first area of the display.

16. The method of claim 10 , wherein obtaining, from a network service, a second content corresponding to the second contact comprises:

obtaining dynamically updated information corresponding to the second contact; and

displaying the dynamically updated information on the second area of the display.

17. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing programming for execution by one or more processors, the programming including instructions for:

displaying a list of contacts on a display of the wireless terminal;

determining a first contact from the list of contacts in response to a selection by a user;

determining a second contact from the list of contacts in response to another selection by the user;

obtaining, from a network service, a first content corresponding to the first contact;

obtaining, from the network service, a second content corresponding to the second contact;

displaying the first content on a first area of the display; and

displaying the second content on a second area of the display, wherein the first area of the display is different from the second area of the display, the first content and the second content are dynamically updated.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , the programming further including instructions for:

wherein the first area of the display is designated for the first contact, and the second area of the display is designated for the second contact.

19. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , the programming further including instructions for:

logging into a location of the network service in accordance with the first contact; and

obtaining the first content corresponding to the first contact; and

logging into a location of the network service in accordance with the second contact; and

obtaining the second content corresponding to the second contact.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein a size and arrangement of the first area is determined according to a size of the first content corresponding to the first contact.

21. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein a size and arrangement of the second area is determined according to a size of the second content corresponding to the second contact.

22. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein obtaining, from a network service, a first content corresponding to the first contact comprises:

obtaining dynamically updated information corresponding to the first contact; and

displaying the dynamically updated information on the first area of the display.

23. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein obtaining, from a network service, a second content corresponding to the second contact comprises:
