The controller portion collects the contents belonging to the same time range and having been detected by the content detector portion and that graphically displays on a display portion along a time series, graphical information related to the contents of the respective contents collected in units of the respective time range used when collecting the respective contents.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus according to the present invention includes a content information acquisition unit that acquires content related information related to content data managed by a content management server from the content management server managing the content data, a selection unit that selects content from a content list which is a list of the content based on the content related information, and an externally connected device control unit that notifies, when the selected content is executed by an externally connected device connected externally, the externally connected device of location information of content data corresponding to the selected content and acquires reproduction state information representing a reproduction state of content when the externally connected device reproduces the selected content from the externally connected device.

Abstract: A display control program is proposed which displays data already stored in a memory on a display unit if an empty capacity of the memory is insufficient for an amount of write data to be written in the memory; displays an operator on the display unit in a first color, the operator being capable of moving by a user operation and being used for selecting data to be overwritten with the write data from the data displayed on the display unit; displays a gage on the display unit and display in a second color a range in the gage corresponding to an insufficient capacity for writing the write data in the memory; and displays a range in the gage corresponding to an empty capacity to be formed by deleting the data selected with the operator, in the first color same as a color of the operator.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a portable communication terminal wherein: an upper case is connected, at its lower end position, to a lower case so as to be slidable and rotatable about a shaft substantially perpendicular to a display screen of a display portion; the lower case has, on its inner main surface, a main operating portion equipped with various keys; and the display portion, even in a closed state of the upper case, is exposed; a shutter button is disposed on an outer side face of the lower case. The device is designed such that when the shutter button is depressed long in a closed state of the upper case, a shift is made to an imaging mode. The imaging mode allows a user to utilize the display screen of the display portion as a finder and to permit imaging in accordance with the user's operation of the shutter button. The device is also designed such that when the upper case is opened, the imaging operation is inhibited.

Abstract: A display controller includes a character display unit for displaying character information on a display unit; a keyword detecting unit for detecting a predetermined keyword from the character information displayed by the character display unit; an image information detecting unit for detecting image information including additional information corresponding to the keyword detected by the keyword detecting unit, from image information including predetermined additional information and stored in a storing unit; and a thumbnail image displaying unit for displaying on the display unit a thumbnail image(s) of the image information detected by the image information detecting unit.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a user evaluation value table and a display controller portion. In the user evaluation value table, user evaluation values each corresponding to the number of processes of the respective content are stored on a basis of the respective content. When performing display changing of a respective content intended for display on a display portion, the controller portion detects from the user evaluation value table a user evaluation value of a content intended to be graphically displayed on the display portion. Then, the controller portion performs change control to change a display time period for the content intended to be graphically displayed on the display portion in accordance with the detected user evaluation value.

Abstract: An information processing device includes a communication unit conducting a videophone call, a memory storing a telephone directory which registers at least each individual telephone number and is capable of registering a portrait image associated with the each individual telephone number, a portrait image registration determination unit determining whether or not a portrait image of calling party is registered in the telephone directory by referring to the telephone directory based on the telephone number of the calling party when sending and receiving data according to the videophone call, a portrait image capturing unit capturing a portrait image received from the calling party as a calling party portrait image if the portrait image registration determination unit determines that the portrait image of the calling party is not registered in the telephone directory, and a portrait image automatic registration unit registering automatically the portrait image captured in the portrait image capturing unit as t

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a 3D(three dimensional)-matrix arranging portion and a luminance/transmittance display controller portion. When a plurality of contents are list-displayed, the 3D-matrix arranging portion arranges the plurality of contents in a 3D-matrix-like form (“3D-matrix,” hereinbelow) in accordance with predetermined three axes. The 3D matrix includes a plurality of planes each containing a group of contents of the plurality of contents. The luminance/transmittance display controller portion displays on a display portion the respective groups of contents of the plurality of contents arranged in the 3D matrix, in a manner that luminance is gradually reduced in a direction from contents on a front-most plane of the plurality of planes to contents on a rear-most plane, and transmittance is gradually increased in the direction from the contents on the front-most plane to the contents on the rear-most plane.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a face image extractor portion, a matching image detector portion, a linking processing portion, a communication address information acquiring portion, and a controller portion. The face image extractor portion extracts a face image of a person in a still image content. The matching image detector portion detects from a memory containing or storing face images and communication address information of respective users the matching face image matching with the extracted face image, which has been extracted by the face image extractor portion. When the matching face image matching with the extracted face image, which has been extracted by the face image extractor portion, is detected by the matching image detector, the linking processing portion performs a linking process to link the extracted face image and communication address information corresponding to the extracted face image and stored in the memory.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a content detector portion, a display controller portion, an operation state detector portion, and a popup display controller portion. The content detector portion detects contents belonging to a same time range from different types of contents each including time information. The display controller portion collects the contents belonging to the same time range and having been detected by the content detector portion. In addition, the display controller portion then displays, on a display portion along a time series, content-related graphical information of the respective contents collected in units of the respective time range used when collecting the respective contents, and displays on the display portion a selector serving to select a desired content from among respective contents displayed through the content-related graphical information.
