Abstract

Computer-readable storage media are disclosed storing instructions, which when executed, cause a processor to: distribute, toward a terminal device of a viewer via a communication line, a first video including an animation of a first avatar of a distributor generated on the basis of motion data or the motion data; distribute, toward the terminal device of the viewer via the communication line, a second video related to a game generated on the basis of operation data by using a received web page; receive, from the terminal device of the viewer via the communication line, token data indicative of providing a token to the distributor from the viewer viewing the second video; and distribute, toward the terminal device of the viewer via the communication line, the second video including a game object set on the basis of the token data.

Claims (64)

1 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing thereon instructions for causing at least one processor to execute:

distributing, to a second terminal device of a second user via a communication line, a video generated based on motion data regarding motion of a first user and operation data regarding an operation of the first user;

receiving, from the second terminal device via the communication line, first gift information generated by an operation of the second user, the first gift information indicating that a gift is to be given to the first user; and

displaying at least one of (i) first ranking information indicating a first ranking regarding the first user receiving the first gift information and (ii) second ranking information indicating a second ranking regarding the second user transmitting the first gift information, wherein

when the first ranking information is displayed, additional information regarding the first user is displayed together with the first ranking information,

when the second ranking information is displayed, additional information regarding the second user is displayed together with the second ranking information,

the first ranking information includes information regarding points calculated for the first user using the first gift information received from the second user viewing the video, and

the second ranking information includes information regarding points calculated for the second user, viewing the video, using the first gift information received from the second user in a unit period of time.

2 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 , wherein

the additional information regarding the first user includes one or more of a name of the first user, a nickname of the first user, an age of the first user, a gender of the first user, a residential area of the first user, one or more videos the first user has distributed or watched, one or more interests of the first user, an appealing message of the first user, a URL for a website of the first user, and a URL for an SNS of the first user.

3 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 , wherein

the additional information regarding the first user includes one or more of a button for following the first user, a button for transmitting a direct message to the first user, a button for chatting with the first user, a button for jumping to a website of the first user, and a button for jumping to an SNS of the first user.

4 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 , wherein

the first ranking information includes information regarding points calculated for the first user using the first gift information and additional gift information received in the unit period of time from one or more additional users viewing the video.

5 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 4 , wherein

the unit period of time is a period of days, a period of weeks, or a monthly period.

6 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 , wherein

the video includes a game, and

the first ranking information includes information regarding points calculated for the first user using the first gift information and additional gift information received from one or more additional users viewing a unit game included in the game.

7 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 , wherein

the additional information regarding the second user includes one or more of a name of the second user, a nickname of the second user, an age of the second user, a gender of the second user, a residential area of the second user, one or more videos the second user has distributed or watched, one or more interests of the second user, an appealing message of the second user, a URL for a website of the second user, and a URL for an SNS of the second user.

8 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 , wherein

the additional information regarding the second user includes one or more of a button for following the second user, a button for transmitting a direct message to the second user, a button for chatting with the second user, a button for jumping to a website of the second user, and a button for jumping to an SNS of the second user.

9 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 , wherein

the unit period of time is a period of days, a period of weeks, or a monthly period.

10 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 , wherein

both the first ranking information and the second ranking information are displayed.

11 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 , wherein

the gift is a free gift given to the first user when the second user consumes specific points, or the gift is a paid-for gift.

12 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 , wherein

the communication line includes the Internet.

13 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 , wherein

the at least one processor is a central processing unit (CPU), a microprocessor or a graphics processing unit (GPU).

14 . A method executed by at least one processor, the method comprising:

distributing, to a second terminal device of a second user via a communication line, a video generated based on motion data regarding motion of a first user and operation data regarding an operation of the first user;

receiving, from the second terminal device via the communication line, first gift information generated by an operation of the second user, the first gift information indicating that a gift is to be given to the first user; and

displaying at least one of (i) first ranking information indicating a first ranking regarding the first user receiving the first gift information and (ii) second ranking information indicating a second ranking regarding the second user transmitting the first gift information, wherein

when the first ranking information is displayed, additional information regarding the first user is displayed together with the first ranking information,

when the second ranking information is displayed, additional information regarding the second user is displayed together with the second ranking information,

the first ranking information includes information regarding points calculated for the first user using the first gift information received from the second user viewing the video, and
