FIG. 2 shows a conceptual configuration of a system network when the present invention is provided. The connection between the personal computer 10, the mobile phone 11, the television 12, which is a user terminal, and the Internet 13 and the connection between the search service provider's computer host server 14 (hereinafter, referred to as the host server 14) and the Internet are communication lines. Connected by

A personal computer 10 connected to the Internet 13, a mobile phone 11 connected to the Internet 13, and a television 12 connected to the Internet 13 are connected to the host server of the service provider using a communication line and the Internet. Identify users.

FIG. 3 shows a search condition setting screen for searching for a movie work, which is provided to the user as a web page from the host server 14 after the user is specified by the password. The user selects the condition of each search item 15 in the search condition setting screen and transmits the condition to the host server 14 of the search service provider.

In the host server 14 receiving the search conditions from the user, the host server 14 performs a search using a database relating to each work, and transmits a group of works desired by the user and related information related to the work to the user terminal as a search result in the form of a web page. Reply with FIG. 1 shows the search result display screen.

A memo column 1 in FIG. 1 where no memo is entered.
FIG. 4 shows a screen immediately before writing the memo 16a and sending it by the send button 19 in FIG. 4a. After the transmission, the memo is stored in the host server 14, and is displayed again as the already written memo 16c together with other search results. The screen displayed is shown in FIG.

FIG. 6 shows a screen in which a memo column 17 in which memos have already been written in the past can be modified by clicking a modify button 18 in FIG.
After the correction, the data is transmitted to the host server 14 by the transmission button 19 in the same manner as the new writing.

Now, it is assumed that the button 20 for moving from the screen state of FIG. 5 to the search condition setting screen is used to move to the search condition setting screen of FIG. For example, it is assumed that a search is executed with a lower degree of wanting to be impressed and a higher degree of wanting to laugh than in the previous search. FIG. 7 shows a search result display screen at that time. For each of the newly retrieved works, if the user has already written a memo, the memo is displayed in the same manner as in FIG.
