Server reservation method, reservation control apparatus and program storage medium

Abstract

An information processing device including a communication interface that exchanges data with a first device and a second device; and a processor that performs authentication of the first device; receives content data from the first device via the communication interface; and controls the communication interface to send the content data in real time to the second device based on an access control setting, which indicates a restriction on sending the content data.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . One or more servers comprising:
 circuitry configured to   transmit, to a client device corresponding to a first user, one or more interface screens comprising an input item corresponding to content, the input item including at least an access control setting corresponding to the content, wherein   the access control setting is independently selectable from at least a first access control setting, a second access control setting and a third access control setting, each corresponding to a different access control setting,   one of the first access control setting, the second access control setting or the third access control setting corresponds to a public access control setting, and   the circuitry is further configured to   receive, from the client device, information corresponding to the input item; and   update a webpage associated with the content when the public access control setting is selected.   
     
     
         2 . The one or more server of  claim 1 , wherein
 the webpage includes a link to access the content.   
     
     
         3 . The one or more server of  claim 1 , wherein
 one of the first access control setting, the second access control setting or the third access control setting corresponds to a friend access control setting, a list of friends are permitted to access the content when the friend access control setting is selected.   
     
     
         4 . The one or more server of  claim 1 , wherein
 the content is image data.   
     
     
         5 . The one or more servers of  claim 1 , wherein
 the input items further include a category corresponding to the content.   
     
     
         6 . The one or more servers of  claim 1 , wherein
 the input items further comprise a text description corresponding to the content.   
     
     
         7 . The one or more servers of  claim 6 , wherein
 the text description is limited to a predetermined number of characters.   
     
     
         8 . The one or more servers of  claim 1 , wherein
 one of the first access control setting, the second access control setting or the third access control setting corresponds to a control setting requiring a password to access the content.   
     
     
         9 . The one or more servers of  claim 8 , wherein
 entry of a valid password is required to access the content when the control setting requiring the password to access the content is selected.   
     
     
         10 . The one or more servers of  claim 1 , wherein
 the input items further include a category corresponding to the content and a text description corresponding to the content,   the text description is limited to a predetermined number of characters, and   the circuitry is configured to update the webpage by incorporating the text description corresponding to the content.   
     
     
         11 . The one or more servers of  claim 1 , wherein
 the one or more servers is one single server.   
     
     
         12 . The one or more servers of  claim 1 , wherein
 the one or more servers includes a plurality of servers.   
     
     
         13 . The one or more servers of  claim 1 , wherein
 the first access control setting corresponds to a public access control setting, and   the second access control setting corresponds to a private access control setting.   
     
     
         14 . The one or more servers of  claim 1 , wherein
 the one or more interface screens are configured to simultaneously display selection items corresponding to the first access control setting, the second access control setting and   the third access control setting.   
     
     
         15 . One or more servers comprising:
 circuitry configured to   transmit, to a client device of a first user, one or more interface screens comprising input items corresponding to content, the input items including at least a text description corresponding to the content and an access control setting corresponding to the content, wherein   the text description is limited to a predetermined number of characters,   the access control setting is independently selectable from at least a first access control setting, a second access control setting and a third access control setting, each corresponding to a different access control setting,   one of the first access control setting, the second access control setting or the third access control setting corresponds to a public access control setting, and   the circuitry is further configured to   receive, from the client device, information corresponding to the input items; and   update a webpage associated with the content when the public access control setting is selected.   
     
     
         16 . The one or more server of  claim 15 , wherein
 one of the first access control setting, the second access control setting or the third access control setting corresponds to a friend access control setting, a list of friends are permitted to access the content when the friend access control setting is selected.   
     
     
         17 . A method performed by one or more servers, the method comprising:
 transmitting, to a client device of a first user, one or more interface screens comprising an input item corresponding to content, the input item including at least an access control setting corresponding to the content, wherein   the access control setting is independently selectable from at least a first access control setting, a second access control setting and a third access control setting, each corresponding to a different access control setting, and   one of the first access control setting, the second access control setting or the third access control setting corresponds to a public access control setting;   receiving, from the client device, information corresponding to the input item; and   updating a webpage associated with the content when the public access control setting is selected.   
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 17 , wherein
 the webpage includes a link to access the content.   
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 17 , wherein
 one of the first access control setting, the second access control setting or the third access control setting corresponds to a friend access control setting, a list of friends are permitted to access the content when the friend access control setting is selected.   
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 17 , wherein
 the content is image data.
