Abstract

A message providing method includes: extracting a keyword from a message; searching a list of messages to extract a related message associated with the keyword, the messages communicated between a user and a conversational partner or between the user and a third party; and linking the related message to the keyword by a hyperlink.

Claims (38)

1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by processing circuitry, cause the processing circuitry to perform a message providing method comprising:

receiving, from a user terminal through a graphical user interface associated with a chatroom, identification information of a plurality of messages from among a list of messages;

summarizing the plurality of messages based on the identification information to generate a summary message;

extracting a keyword from the summary message;

searching the list of messages to extract a related message associated with the keyword, the messages in the list of messages communicated between a user and a conversational partner or between the user or the conversational partner and a third party;

linking the related message to the keyword by a hyperlink; and

presenting the summary message with the hyperlink through an input window for the chatroom.

2. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the message providing method further comprises:

linking the related message to the keyword to provide the summary message to the user terminal.

3. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 2 , wherein the message providing method further comprises:

receiving a correction of the summary message from the user terminal.

4. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 2 , wherein the message providing method further comprises:

receiving a message transmission request signal from the user terminal; and

transmitting the summary message including the hyperlink to another user terminal in response to the message transmission request signal.

5. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the message providing method further comprises:

providing the summary message to the user terminal.

6. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the identification information includes at least one of an identifier of each of the plurality of messages or an identifier of the chatroom in which the messages are communicated between the user and the conversational partner or between the user or the conversational partner and the third party.

7. A message providing apparatus comprising:

processing circuitry configured to execute computer-readable instructions such that the processing circuitry is configured to

receive, from a user terminal through a graphical user interface associated with a chatroom, identification information of a plurality of messages from among a list of messages,

summarize the plurality of messages based on the identification information to generate a summary message,

extract a keyword from the summary message,

search the list of messages to extract a related message associated with the keyword, the messages in the list of messages communicated between a user and a conversational partner or between the user or the conversational partner and a third party,

link the related message to the keyword by a hyperlink, and

present the summary message with the hyperlink through an input window for the chatroom.

8. The message providing apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the processing circuitry is configured to execute computer-readable instructions such that the processing circuitry is further configured to provide the summary message to the user terminal.

9. The message providing apparatus of claim 8 , further comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a correction of the summary message from the user terminal.

10. The message providing apparatus of claim 9 , wherein

the receiver is further configured to receive a message transmission request signal from the user terminal; and

the processing circuitry is configured to execute computer-readable instructions such that the processing circuitry is further configured to transmit the summary message including the hyperlink to another user terminal in response to the message transmission request signal.

11. A message providing method comprising:

receiving, from a user terminal through a graphical user interface associated with a chatroom, identification information of a plurality of messages from among a list of messages;

summarizing the plurality of messages based on the identification information to generate a summary message;

extracting a keyword from the summary message;

searching the list of messages to extract a related message associated with the keyword, the messages in the list of messages communicated between a user and a conversational partner or between the user and a third party;

linking the related message to the keyword by a hyperlink; and

presenting the summary message with the hyperlink through an input window for the chatroom.
