Content delivery system, delivery server, receiving terminal, and content delivery method
A transmitting terminal can transmit a content held by itself to a specific receiving terminal having no email software as if using a mailer. The transmitting terminal ( 10 ) and the receiving terminal ( 20 ) are connected to a delivery server ( 30 ) via a network ( 4 ). The delivery server ( 30 ) comprises: a database ( 36 ) for registering the device ID that specifies the receiving terminal ( 20 ); a content storage ( 39 ) for temporarily storing a content transmitted from the transmitting terminal ( 10 ); and table ( 33, 37 ) for managing contents separately on a per device ID basis of the receiving terminal. The delivery server ( 30 ), when receiving a request from the receiving terminal ( 20 ), refers to the tables ( 33, 27 ) and transmits to the receiving terminal ( 20 ) a content, the transmission destination of which corresponds to the device ID of the receiving terminal ( 20 ).
1. A content delivery system comprising a transmitting terminal, a
plurality of receiving terminals, and a delivery server,
wherein the delivery server comprises a database which registers a user ID of a sender who transmits a picture content and a user ID of each of a plurality of receivers who receives the picture content in association with each other, and a content storage which stores the picture content transmitted from the sender,
wherein, in a case that the transmitting terminal transmits a new picture content to the delivery server, each of the plurality of receiving terminals receives a first notice indicating that the new picture content is stored in the content storage, and
wherein each of the plurality of receiving terminals displays a list of the picture contents which are transmitted from the transmitting terminal and stored in the content storage, information about a sender who transmitted the listed picture contents, and a comment inputted by the transmitted terminal.
2. The content delivery system according to claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of receiving terminals further displays a group of the picture contents.
3. The content delivery system according to claim 1 , wherein, in a case that each of the plurality of receiving terminals receives a second notice which indicates whether or not the delivery server registers the user ID of each of the plurality of receivers, each of the plurality of receiving terminals accepts an access to the delivery server via the second notice and the delivery server allows each of the plurality of receiving terminals to download the picture content transmitted from the transmitting terminal, and
in response to a downloading request from the registered user of each of the plurality of receivers, the delivery server transmits the picture content to each of the plurality of receiving terminals.
4. A content delivery system comprising a transmitting terminal and a plurality of receiving terminals,
wherein the transmitting terminal and the plurality of receiving terminals are coupled to a delivery server which comprises a database which registers a user ID of a sender who transmits a picture content and a user ID of each of a plurality of receivers who receives the picture content in association with each other, and a content storage which stores the picture content transmitted from the sender,
wherein, in a case that the transmitting terminal transmits a new picture content to the delivery server, each of the plurality of receiving terminals receives a first notice indicating that the new picture content is stored in the content storage, and
wherein each of the plurality of receiving terminals displays a list of the picture contents which are transmitted from the transmitting terminal and stored in the content storage, information about a sender who transmitted the listed picture contents, and a comment inputted by the transmitting terminal.
5. The content delivery system according to claim 4 , wherein each of the plurality of receiving terminals further displays a group of the picture contents.
6. The content delivery system according to claim 4 , wherein, in a case that each of the plurality of receiving terminals receives a second notice which indicates whether or not the delivery server registers the user ID of each of the plurality of receivers, each of the plurality of receiving terminals accepts an access to the delivery server via the second notice and the delivery server allows each of the plurality of receiving terminals to download the picture content transmitted from the transmitting terminal, and
in response to a downloading request from the registered user of each of the plurality of receivers, the delivery server transmits the picture content to each of the plurality of receiving terminals.
7. A method for delivering picture contents among a transmitting terminal, a plurality of receiving terminals and a delivery server which comprises a database which registers a user ID of a sender who transmits a picture content and a user ID of each of a plurality of receivers who receives the picture content in association with each other, and a content storage which stores the picture content transmitted from the sender,
the method comprising the steps of:
transmitting a first notice indicating that a new picture content is stored in the content storage from the transmitting terminal to each of the plurality of receiving terminals in a case that the transmitting terminal transmits the new picture content to the delivery server; and
displaying, by each of the plurality of receiving terminals, a list of the picture contents which are transmitted from the transmitting terminal and stored in the content storage, information about a sender who transmitted the listed picture contents, and a comment inputted by the transmitting terminal.
8. The method for delivering picture contents according to claim 7 , further comprising the step of:
displaying, by each of the plurality of receiving terminals, a group of the picture contents.
9. The method for delivering picture contents according to claim 7 , further comprising the steps of:
in a case that each of the plurality of receiving terminals receives a second notice which indicates whether or not the delivery server registers the user ID of each of the plurality of receivers and each of the plurality of receiving terminals accepts an access to the delivery server via the second notice,
allowing, by the delivery server, each of the plurality of receiving terminals to download the picture content transmitted from the transmitting terminal, and
in response to a downloading request from the registered user of each of the plurality of receivers, transmitting the picture content from the delivery server to each of the plurality of receiving terminals.
