Abstract: An input section (15) of a mobile terminal (1) accepts an input of an evaluation of a broadcast program, while the mobile terminal (1) reproduces the broadcast program. A communicating section (13) transmits the evaluation accepted by the input section (15) to a server. The server finds an aggregate total by aggregating, for each broadcast program, evaluations transmitted from a plurality of mobile terminals (1), and transmits the aggregate total to each of the mobile terminals (1). The communicating section (13) receives the aggregate total transmitted from the server. A display section (11) notifies a user of the aggregate total received by the communicating section (13), by displaying the aggregate total on a display (12) while the broadcast program is being reproduced. This increases motivation causing the user to continue to watch and/or listen to content.

Abstract: A so-called out-of-focus problem occurs when a subject is not positioned in the center of a lens in an ordinary auto-focus function. A focusing point adjusting device is proposed to solve such a problem which divides a photographing area captured by a camera into a plurality of areas, and selects an area to which a user want to focus to automatically focus to the selected area. However, with a single-hand-operated small terminal especially such as a camera-carrying cell phone, problems are likely to be posed such that a user's finger gets into a camera photographing area to cause shaking. A focusing area adjusting camera-carrying portable terminal which has functions of displaying a subject captured by the camera on a monitor screen, and selecting and determining a focusing area while the user watches the monitor screen. The user selects a focusing area and then determines it by depressing a button or the like, thereby enabling the user to ease a shaking problem or the like.
