The blog service that adds the function of setting up the relationship with others to the existing homepage function and greatly strengthens the decorating, multimedia and management functions has recently appeared. There are a large number of blog operators, including major portal operators, and they are creating a cultural trend as the most common Internet-based service.

Early wired blogging services expanded its reach to wireless Internet, allowing users to access blogs on the wireless Internet, search for posts, or upload posts via SMS (Short Message Service). Recently, a service for uploading digital photos taken with a built-in digital camera to one's own blog has also appeared. In order to upload a picture, a blog service to which a user subscribes must register and authenticate his / her mobile phone number, and a blog operator must use a special number assigned by a mobile operator.

In summary, current blog service users can either: 1) access a blog via a PC-based wired Internet, upload text, photos, images, videos, etc., and freely visit other people's blog sites to write; You can post a post to your blog, 2) You can access your blog, upload a short message service (SMS) or digital photos over the wireless Internet, although it is more restrictive than a wired internet based service.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is a digital photo and voice message taken with a digital camera embedded in the mobile phone, in addition to the text (text), photo, image, video upload service provided by the existing blog service To upload to your blog at the same time.

In order to realize the service providing method proposed in the present invention, a service providing system (open communication application server (= Parlay Application Server), open communication gateway system (= Parlay Gateway) or media server) It must be built on this network, and the service provider must send SMS (Call Back Message Short Message Service) for call back so that blog users can make voice messages.

Through the service providing method proposed by the present invention, a blog user can upload a voice message recorded using a mobile phone registered to a blog to a blog simultaneously with a digital picture.

1 shows a schematic diagram of a network system for providing a service according to the present invention. As shown in the schematic diagram, a system implementation for realizing the service providing method proposed in the present invention is possible in two ways. The first service provision method is implemented by an open communication application server (= Parlay Application Server) and an open communication gateway system (= Parlay Gateway) system. The second service providing method is a media server (Media Server). ).

In both ways, the role of the blog server program is the same. The blog server program provides a short message service (SMS) transmission for call back so that digital pictures taken with a mobile phone can be stored and voice messages can be recorded. Request to an application server, Parlay Application Server) and an open communication gateway system (= Parlay Gateway) or Media Server. In addition, when recording of the voice message is completed, the service user's telephone number information and a voice message converted to be played on the Internet can be converted into a service providing system (open communication application server (= Parlay application server, Parlay Application server). Server) and open communication gateway system (= Parlay Gateway or Media Server) to receive and store and upload to the blog board.

Service delivery systems (Open Communication Application Server (= Parlay Application Server) and Open Communication Gateway System (= Parlay Gateway) or Media Server) provide Short Message Service (SMS) for voice recording. It transmits to the service user, accepts the request of the service user, drives the service logic for the corresponding service, and sends the announcement to the service user. When the voice recording is completed, the stored voice message is converted into a playable form on the Internet and transmitted to the server program of the blog operator together with the telephone number information of the service user.

In the first service providing method, an open communication gateway system (= Parlay Gateway) provides services in conjunction with communication network additional equipment (information broadcasting equipment, etc.) owned by the existing telecommunications service provider. The United Messaging System (UMS) or Automatic Response System (ARS) system, referred to as the Media Server, provides services through on-device provisioning. In particular, in the first service providing method, communication between an open communication application server (= Parlay Application Server) and an open communication gateway system (= Parlay Gateway) is performed through an open standard Parlay API. Parlay API is a technology established by Parlay Group formed by several international telecommunication service providers. It is an open technology that allows third-party application services to safely use communication network resources through standard APIs.

2 is a diagram illustrating a subscription flow of a service proposed in the present invention. First, the blog owner logs in to the blog operator's site and registers the mobile phone number he / she wants to use through the authentication process. If necessary, a procedure for setting a folder to upload digital pictures separately is performed. In addition, a procedure of confirming whether or not a voice message is uploaded is performed. When the service subscription process is completed, the registered mobile number information and other set information are stored in the blog server program.

3 is a diagram illustrating a usage flowchart of a service proposed in the present invention. Take a picture with your phone's built-in digital camera, save it, and select the Upload picture menu. When the blog operator enters a special number assigned by the operator and clicks the call button, the photo is stored in the blog server and the SMS (Short Message Service) transmission for recording a voice message is provided in the service providing system (open communication application server (= parlay). Request to an application server, Parlay Application Server) and an open communication gateway system (= Parlay Gateway) or Media Server. Service delivery systems (Open Communication Application Server (= Parlay Application Server) and Open Communication Gateway System (= Parlay Gateway) or Media Server) provide Short Message Service (SMS) to service users. When the service user clicks the call button, the service provider (open communication application server (= Parlay Application Server) and open communication gateway system (= Parlay Gateway) or media server) The service logic (Logic) which is present is driven to send the announcement broadcast to the service user. The service user records his / her voice according to the announcement broadcast, and when the recording is completed, the voice message is converted into a form that can be played on the Internet, thereby providing a service providing system (open communication application server (= Parlay application server, Parlay Application). Server) and an open communication gateway system (= Parlay Gateway) or Media Server.
