DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. A so-called net village constituting an information display system is a virtual city jointly constructed in response to a user's idea. It is a nation and is a service system that involves real-time information exchange between users of communication services. The application communication software that configures this system includes a communication control function that allows the information center server to capture when and which web page the user clicked as access log data, and a web page in a CG format such as a building format. A display control function for opening (linking) the company's homepage by generating and displaying the data, and when a user visits (clicks on) a desired CG, a WWW browser is activated and a WEB page is displayed, and a URL specified in advance for each CG is displayed. Each program has a built-in jump start processing function. At this time, the access log data for which the CG is clicked by the communication control function is totaled every day on the information center server side, and the display control function is performed according to the real-time fluctuation of the number of clicks via the activation of the activation processing function. The target CG generated and displayed as described above can be reproduced and displayed so as to be freely enlarged and reduced.

The information center server has a specific C
A CG growth rate determining function for changing the size of the target CG after determining the CG growth rate based on the relative degree of comparison between the G and the entire access status; and access data collected for a predetermined period. It has a feedback function to feed back analysis results to the target company.

[0009] As shown in FIG. 1, a specific system whole image allows a user to access a center server group 2 of an information center 1 through a terminal operation and to obtain city difference data (CG growth). There is a personal computer terminal 4 in which application communication software 3 for receiving application information is included. In the information center 1, in addition to the center server group 2, the access status is obtained from the access log information from the application communication software 3 on the user side. CG growth degree determination unit 6 and access status analysis data unit 7 for counting the total. The access status analysis data section 7 provides information on the analysis data to the CG link source 8. The attribute data of the user is sent in advance by sending an application form 10 by mail or the like from the user side, and the information is input and recorded in the user attribute section 9 in the information center 1.

[0010] The operation flow of the system based on the above system configuration, as shown in FIG.
If there is a G registration application, the center will register the CG. When the user clicks on the registration information while using the application communication software, the click log information is recorded in the information center 1, and the growth rate of the target CG is determined based on the access status between the specific CG and the whole. Then, the size of the CG is changed. In addition, the information center 1 aggregates the access data for one month from the recording of the click log information, and feeds back the data analysis result to the target company.

With the above configuration, the center server group 2
To the side, dynamic log data according to access information of each user via the application communication software 3 of the personal computer terminal is recorded and managed in advance, and the dynamic log data is operated according to the frequency of real-time access utilization of the dynamic log data by the user. Information corresponding to strategic needs is provided from the center server group 2 to each user. Specifically, when the user activates the icon, the scenery that grew daily is displayed as a CG, and the more the user clicks and visits, the larger the CG grows, and the smaller the number of visits, the smaller the CG becomes. It is a mechanism that can recognize whether it is rising or falling by the change in the size of the CG. In other words, it can be determined that the suddenly expanded CG has some sort of popular secret.

[0012] The net village narrows down the target by crossing all characteristics from distribution to all the residents to minority residents satisfying a specific requirement, thereby enabling information distribution. For example, the application communication software 3 has a function to easily create an original village of your own by dragging and dropping CGs and other buildings participating in the net village, and does not enter the village by typing a URL A so-called visual bookmark function (not shown) for attaching a web page is provided. It is very convenient to set the web page that you always use to your own city and set it so that it can be started by default. In addition, you can design various original building design parts such as country style design and Hawaii style design in Net Village. In addition, by expanding the mechanism of the conference room that supports personal computer communication, it is possible to freely open a place where discussions can be made while displaying images, videos, sounds, etc. on any theme in the form of CG. It is also possible to exchange messages between residents.

Next, an example of use of the present invention will be described.
Users participating in the virtual city nation are sent monthly a CD-ROM as a virtual newspaper that is a passport to enter the net village country.
Put the ROM in your PC and access. At this time, the screen is reproduced and displayed like a newspaper on the monitor, and the user obtains the latest news and new information on the net village by browsing in various directions. At this time, the latest browser and Internet-related software can be installed from the paper. In addition, users who become members on the way can read past back issues on the website of Net Village Newspaper. The net village is a membership system, and the dynamic log data is grasped on the center server group 2 side, and not only the attributes such as the age, address, occupation, etc. of the user, but also what services the user uses. , Or what kind of homepage is frequently viewed. That is, advertisement distribution to a specific age and a designated area, for example, advertisement of cosmetics for women in their twenties, advertisement limited to the area of a community-based company or store, or a user having a specific preference. Advertisement distribution, for example, it is possible to carry out advertisements of car manufacturers for users who often see the homepage of cars,
Advertisement distribution that responds to dynamic needs is possible. When viewed from the link source, when the user visits (clicks on) which web page, the net village, which is the information center 1, is all captured as inhabitant access log data, and the link source includes a CG such as a building in the net village. By opening (linking) the original homepage in such a form, a passive advantage is generated at the link source.

[0014]

The present invention is configured as described above.
In particular, providers who provide conventional line connection services, carriers who own the lines themselves, personal computer communications that hold a large number of telephone lines and provide closed network services, and actively provide instructions to users on the information center server side There is no necessity to make it possible to do so, and the dynamic log data on the user side can be grasped on the information center server side, and the information corresponding to the dynamic needs can be provided to the user side at any time. In other words, the information corresponding to the dynamic needs is reproduced and displayed at any time in the CG construction format of the CG according to the real-time access utilization frequency of the dynamic log data, thereby generating the service processing display conventionally performed by the information center server side. To the user terminal interface C
It can be performed only by starting via the D-ROM. This not only eliminates the need for the user to type in troublesome URLs one by one with the keyboard, but also displays where and what WEB
Remember if there is a page. Further, since the change in the number of daily accesses can be visually recognized and there is something in the high CG, it can be used as a foothold for popular web pages and event information. In addition, users can be expected to have active access, visually check their homepage every day, make comparisons with competitors, and obtain competitor materials if desired. Furthermore, the user cannot access the information transmitted by the link source unless the user accesses the home page alone and sees it. However, even if the user does not look at the home page of the link source, the link source transmits the information. You can also find special information to do.
