The method for building a tag library comprises the following steps: receiving tag information made for a tagged user by a tagging user in a social network; and associating and storing the tagging user, the tagged user and the tag information made for the tagged user by the tagging user, and building a tag library on the basis of a user relationship in the social network. The tag library can be obtained by storing tag information made for another user by a user in asocial network as well as a user relationship; and by using tag library, a contact can be searched for on the basis of the tag information and the user relationship, and because the search is performed on the basis of the tag information and the user relationship, the searched user and the user have a relationship of indirect contacts, so that the searched user is more reliable, thereby improving the search success rate. |
