As a result, the user in turn checks the text (voice) message they sent. Then, select the person you like, click on the number (1, 2, 3) and press the "Call" button, and the person is automatically called. Thus, the user can be provided with the chat service using the mobile communication terminal. In this case, the user may select any one person as described above, but may contact the counterparts to see a doctor and meet with a disagreeing partner, in which case the chat service provided by the present invention is used for a meeting. Also available.

In the above series of processes, when a call is received while the user is searching for the correspondents, the call is automatically connected by pressing any button. That is, according to the method of the present invention, when a user makes a general call from the outside while using a chat service, the user also provides such a phone call function so that the user can make a phone call as usual. In addition, a call waiting service is basically provided to increase the probability of a call connection, and a service pause function is also provided in consideration of a case where a user (service registrant) does not want to use the service temporarily.

On the other hand, Figure 4 is a flow chart showing the execution of the second embodiment of the chat service providing method using a communication device according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, first, a process of authenticating at a user's terminal is performed (step 401). That is, the user enters a predetermined password using the button of the terminal. The CPU in the terminal then inquires and authenticates it. When authentication is completed in the user's terminal as described above, the chat service menu is displayed in the window 109w of the user's terminal 109 (step 402). For example, a menu of the service type is displayed in the window 109w such as "1. Location tracking, 2. Chat, 3. Club". The user then selects two chats from the displayed menu and inputs the user's basic information according to the subdivided menu accordingly (step 403). Then, the basic information of the input user is transmitted to the chat service providing system 100 (step 404). Then enter a text message and send it to the chat service providing system (step 405). Here, if the user wants to input the voice mesh instead of the text message, after step 404, the user first connects to the chat service providing system to register the voice message (a program embedded in the terminal until the text message input process). (Offline), but in case of inputting a voice message, the ARS must be guided by the ARS first to provide an online connection to the chat service providing system. Register in the system.

On the other hand, when the transmission of the text message is completed, the search condition information and the search range for the desired partner are input through the menu of the terminal (step 406).
