Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a presentation unit that, when each user is assigned at least one tag indicating characteristics of the user and a tag is in common between a viewing user and a viewed user, presents the tag in common of the viewing user in more detail than a tag which is not in common.

Claims (31)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a central processing unit configured to:

in response to a first user selecting to view a profile of a second user, determining whether at least one tag of a first hierarchy of tags indicating characteristics of the first user with at least one tag of a second hierarchy of tags indicating characteristics of the second user is in common between the first user and the second user;

in response to determining that a tag is in common between the first user and the second user, displaying, on a display with information identifying the second user, the tag of the second user in common between the first user and the second user and details of the second hierarchy below the tag that is in common between the first user and the second user; and

in response to determining that a tag is not in common between the first user and the second user, displaying, on the display with the information identifying the second user, only a category of the characteristics of the second hierarchy without displaying any of the tags of the second hierarchy.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the central processing unit is further configured to:

display details of the second hierarchy below the tag that is in common between the first user and the second user by also displaying a tag at a lower level of the second hierarchy than the tag in common.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the at least one tag includes a plurality of tags classified into a plurality of types, and

whether or not a tag is common is determined by comparing tags belonging to a same classification.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein the classification includes at least an organization, and

as a tag of a user, an organization to which the user belongs is assigned to the user.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein the classification includes at least a job, and

as a tag of a user, a word extracted from a document related to the user is assigned to the user.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein the classification includes at least a personal fact, and

as a tag of a user, a word inputted by the user is assigned to the user.

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

extract an organization corresponding to a position of the first user,

wherein when the organization extracted matches an organization to which the second user belongs, the central processing unit presents a tag of the organization in detail.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 ,

wherein the first user has a mobile terminal,

the central processing unit identifies a position of the first user from the mobile terminal, and

the central processing unit presents a tag to the mobile terminal.

9. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to function as a presentation unit that:

in response to a first user selecting to view a profile of a second user, determining whether at least one tag of a first hierarchy of tags indicating characteristics of the first user with at least one tag of a second hierarchy of tags indicating characteristics of the second user is in common between the first user and the second user;

in response to determining that a tag is in common between the first user and the second user, displaying, on a display with information identifying the second user, the tag of the second user in common between the first user and the second user and details of the second hierarchy below the tag that is in common between the first user and the second user; and

in response to determining that a tag is not in common between the first user and the second user, displaying, on the display with the information identifying the second user, only a category of the characteristics of the second hierarchy without displaying any of the tags of the second hierarchy.
