Embodiment 2

As shown in Fig.2, an embodiment of the présent invention provides a method for sharing contents, which includes the followings:

Step 201: when a user uses an application adapted to obtain contents to obtain a content to be shared, a terminai obtains position information of the user.

Specifically, the terminal may obtain the position information of the user by any one of the following three methods:

In the first method, the terminal obtains position coordinates of the position where the terminal 1$ located by using a Global Positioning System (GPS) module included In this terminal to position this terminal, and takes the position coordinates as the position information of the user.

In this method, the position coordinates may be géographie coordinates or the like.

In the second method, the terminal obtains identifier information of a base station to which the terminal accesses, and uses the Identifier information of the base station to which the terminal accesses as the position Information of the user.

In this method, the Identifier information of the base station may be an address or a serial number of the base station.

in the thîrd method, the terminal obtains Identifier Information of a wireless fidelity (wifi) network to which the terminal access, and uses the identifier information of the wifi network to which the terminal access as the position information of the user.

In this method, the wifi network Is also known as a wireless broadband, and the Identifier information of the wifi network may be a MAC address or the like of the wifi network.

In the above methods, the terminal includes an application adapted to obtain contents, and the user may start the application adapted to obtain the contents in the terminal, and then obtain the content to be shared by starting this application adapted to obtain the contents In the terminal.

In the above methods, the application adapted to obtain the contents may be an application for taking photos, MicoBlog or the like in the terminal, and the content to be shared may be picture(s) or text(s).

For example, in this embodiment, an application for taking photos is taken an example, but the présent Invention Is not limited thereto. When the content to be shared by the user are picture(s), the user can starts the application adapted to take photos in the terminal to obtain the picture(s) to be shared, then the terminal positions itself by using a GPS module included therein to obtain its position coordinates (3, 3) and takes its position coordinates (3, 3) as the position information of the user. '

Step 202: the terminal sends a reporting request massage to a position server, and the reporting request massage carries the position information and Identifier information ofthe user.

In this step, the identifier information of the user may be presorted in the terminal, thus the terminal may directly obtain the stored identifier Information of the user, or the terminal may directly receive the identifier information of the user input by the user, and then, the terminal sends the reporting request massage carrying the position information and the identifier information of the user.

For example, the terminal sends the reporting request massage to the position server, and 5 the reporting request massage carries the position information (3, 3) and the identifier information ID1 of the user.

Step 203: the position server reçoives the reporting request massage sent by the terminal, and obtains the position coordinates of the user according to the position information of the user carried in the reporting request massage.

tO Specifically, if the position information of the user carried in the reporting request massage is the position coordinates of the terminai, the position server détermines that the position coordinates of the terminal carried in the reporting request massage is the position coordinates of the user.

If the position information of the user carried in the reporting request massage is the 15 Identifier information of the base station to which the terminai accesses, the position server obtains the position coordinates of the base station to which the terminai accesses from a correspondence relationship between stored identifier Information and position coordinates of base stations according to the Identifier information of the base station to which the terminai accesses, and takes the position coordinates of the base station to which the terminal accesses 20 as the position coordinates of the user.

if the position information of the user carried in the reporting request massage is the Identifier information of the wifi network to which the terminal access, the position server obtains the position coordinates of the wifi network to which the terminai access from a a correspondence relationship between stored identifier information and the position coordinates 25 of wifi networks according to the Identifier information of the wifi network to which the terminal accesses, and takes the position coordinates of the wifi network to which the terminai access as the position coordinates of the user.

For example, the position server receives the reporting request massage sent by the terminal, and the reporting request massage carries the position information (3, 3) and the 30 identifier Information ID1 of the user. Since the position Information of the user is the position coordinates of the terminal, it is determined that the position coordinates of the user Is (3, 3).

Step 204: the position server obtains an object list according to a stored correspondence relationship between identify information and the position coordinates of users as well as the identify information of this user and the position coordinates of this user. The object list includes

Identifier Information of one or more sharing objects. The sharing object(s) are user(s) other than this user, and the distance between this user and any of the sharing object(s) is less than a predetermined distance.

Specifically, the position server détermines a région by taking a point corresponding to the position coordlnates of the user as a center and taking a predetermlned distance as a radius, and obtains the identifier information of the user(s) in this région from the stored correspondence relationship between the identifier information and the position coordinates of usera, if the identifier information of the user(s) in this région includes the Identifier information of this user, the identifier information of this user is removed from the Identifier information of the user(s) In this région, and the remainlng identifier information of the user(s) in this région is taken as the Identifier information of the sharing object(s). if the identifier information of the user(s) in this région does not include the identifier information of this user, the identifier Information of the user(s) In this région is taken as the Identifier information of the sharing object(s). The object list is formed by the identifier information of the sharing object(s).

Or, the following is performed. According to the position coordinates of the user and the correspondence relationship of the stored identifier Information and position coordinates of usera, the position server calculâtes the distance between this user and each of the usera indicated in the correspondence relationship of the stored identifier information and position coordinates of the usera, and obtains identifier information of the userfs) the distance between which and this user is less than a predetermlned distance. If the identifier information of the user(s) in this région includes the identifier information of this user, the identifier Information of this user is removed from the identifier information of the user(s) in this région, and the remaining Identifier Information of the user(s) In this région is taken as the identifier information of the sharing object(s). If the identifier information of the user(s) in this région does not include the identifier information of this user, the identifier information of the user(s) in this région is taken as the identifier information of the sharing object(s). The object list is formed by the identifier information of the sharing object(s).

Further, usage time when the sharing object(s) in the object list uses the application adapted to obtain contents lately is obtained, and identifier information of the sharing object(s) in the object list that has not used the application adapted to obtain the contents for a predetermlned time period is removed according to the usage time. in such a way, the object list only Includes the sharing object(s) that has used the application adapted to obtain the contents within the predetermlned time period.

Specifically, the usage time when the sharing object(s) in the object list uses the application adapted to obtain contents lately is obtain according to a correspondence relationship between the stored identifier information and the usage time of usera, and identifier information of the 7 sharing object(s) in the object list that has not used the application adapted to obtaln the contents for a predetermined time period is removed according to the usage time.

Further, a correspondence reiationship between the identifier information and position coordinates of the user Is established. Specifically, look up the stored correspondence reiationship between the identifier information and position coordinates of users according to the Identifier Information of the user, if the position coordinates corresponding to the identifier information of the user are found, the found position coordinates are updated to the iatest position coordinates of the user, if the position coordinates corresponding to the identifier information of the user are not found, the correspondence between the identifier information and the position coordinates of the user is taken as a record recorded in the correspondence reiationship between the identifier Information and position coordinates of users.

Further, the usage time when the user uses the application adapted to obtain contents lately Is obtained, and a correspondence reiationship between the Identifier information of the user and the usage time thereof is established. Specifically, détermine the current time as the usage time when the user uses the application adapted to obtain contents iately, and look up the correspondence reiationship between the identifier information and the usage time of users according to the identifier information of the user. If the usage time corresponding to the Identifier information of the user is found, the found usage time is updated to the Iatest usage time when the user uses the application. If the usage time corresponding to the identifier information of the user Is not found, the correspondence reiationship between the identifier Information and the usage time of the user is taken as a record recorded in lhe correspondence reiationship between the identifier information and usage time of users.

Further, a friend list of this user Is obtained, where the friend list includes identifier information of user(s) who has a friend reiationship with this user, and the identifier information of the userfs) who do not hâve a friend reiationship with this user Is removed from the object list according to the friend list of this user.

Specifically, the friend list of this user is obtained from a stored correspondence reiationship between the identifier Information and the friend iists of users according to the Identifier information of this user, and the identifier information of the userfs) who do not hâve a friend reiationship with this user is removed from the object list according to the identifier information of user(s) who has a friend reiationship with this user in the friend iist.

For example, In this embodiment, the position server Includes a correspondence reiationship between the identifier Information and the position coordinates of users as shown In Table 1, and a correspondence reiationship between the Identifier information of and the usage time of users as shown in Table 2. The usage time of each user included in the correspondence relationship between the identifier information and the usage time of users shown in Table 2 is the time when each user uses the application adapted to take photos iately, i.e. the time when each user takes photos Iately.

The position server détermines a région by taking a point with the position coordinates (3, 3} of the user as a center and taking a predetermined distance 3 as a radius, obtains the identifier Information ID1, ID2, ID3 and ID4 of the users in this région from the stored correspondence relationship between the Identifier information and the position coordinates of users as shown ln Table 1, removes the Identifier Information ID1 of this user from the obtained identifier Information ID1, ID2, ID3 and ID4 of the users, takes the remainlng identifier information ID2, ID3 and ID4 of the users as the Identifier information of the sharing objects, and forms an object list. According to the identifier information ID2, ID3 and ID4 of the sharing objects Included ln the object list, the position server finds from the correspondence relationship between the identifier information and the usage time of users shown in Table 2 that the usage time when the sharing object corresponding to the Identifier Information ID2 Iately uses the application adapted to take photos Is Time 2, the usage time when the sharing object corresponding to the Identifier Information ID3 Iately uses the application adapted to take photos is Time 3, and the usage time when the sharing object corresponding to the identifier information ID4 Iately uses the application adapted to take photos is Time 4. The time Interval between the current time and any of Time 2 and Time 3 is less than a predetermined time, and the time interval between Time and the current time is greater than the predetermined time. Therefore, the sharing object corresponding to the identifier information ID2 and the sharing object corresponding to the identifier information ID3 hâve used the application adapted to take photos within the 5 predetermined time, while the sharing object corresponding to the identifier information ID4 has not used application adapted to take photos within the predetermined time. Thus, according to the usage time, the identifier information ID4 corresponding to the sharing object which has not used the application adapted to take photos within the predetermined time is removed from the object list. As a resuit, the final object list includes the identifier information ID2 and ID3 of the 10 sharing objects.

The position server finds from the correspondence relationship between the identifier information and the position coordinates of users shown in Table 1 according to the identifier information ID1 of this user that the position coordinates corresponding to the identifier information ID1 is (2, 2), updates the position coordinates (2, 2) found in Table 1 to the latest t5 position coordinates (3, 3) of this user, and obtains the correspondence relationship between the identifier information and the position coordinate of users as shown in Table 3.
