  • Publication number: 20150188858
    Abstract: When a chat service initiation request arrives from a user terminal, the most suitable communication modality is determined based on registration information stored in memory and the message transmitted from the user terminal is converted to this communication modality and then transmitted to the remote party. In principle, if the destination party is a registered member, the chat modality is selected as the communication modality employed when communicating with the remote destination party. On the other hand, if the destination party is an unregistered member, a modality is selected that corresponds to the information registered in memory in association with the unregistered member.
