MESSAGE NOTIFICATION SYSTEM, MESSAGE TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING APPARATUS, PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

A message notification system includes a message transmitting apparatus and a message receiving apparatus. In the message transmitting apparatus, transmission data including an acquired message is generated and transmitted. In the message receiving apparatus, the transmission data is received. When the transmission data is received, the message receiving apparatus notifies a receiving-side user of the message in the transmission data. The message transmitting apparatus sets whether nor a receiving-side user is to be re-notified of the message in the transmission data, and sets a re-notification condition for re-notification of the message. When receiving the transmission data with the setting that re-notification is required, the message receiving apparatus stores the message in the transmission data in association with the re-notification condition of the message, determines whether or not the re-notification condition is met, and notifies the receiving-side user of the message which is determined that the re-notification condition is met.

1. A message notification system comprising:
a message transmitting apparatus; and a message receiving apparatus, the message transmitting apparatus including:
message input means that enables a transmitting-side user to input a message;message acquiring means that acquires the message inputted by the transmitting-side user via the message input means;transmission data generating means that generates transmission data including the message;transmitting means that transmits the transmission data generated by the transmission data generating means;first setting means that sets whether nor not a receiving-side user is to be re-notified of the message included in the transmission data; andsecond setting means that sets, when the first setting means sets that the receiving-side user is to be re-notified of the message, a re-notification condition that is a condition for re-notification of the message, and is a condition that is correlated with a content of the message and is used to determine a state in which the message becomes more useful than at the time of message transmission, the transmission data further including data indicating whether or not re-notification is required that is set by the first setting means and data indicating the re-notification condition when the first setting means sets that the receiving-side user is to be re-notified of the message, the message receiving apparatus including:
receiving means that receives the transmission data transmitted by the message transmitting apparatus;first message notifying means that notifies, when the receiving means receives the transmission data, a receiving-side user of the message included in the transmission data received by the receiving means;first storage means that stores, when the receiving means receives the transmission data with the setting that re-notification is required, the message included in the transmission data in association with the re-notification condition of the message;determining means that determines whether or not the re-notification condition stored in the first storage means is met; andsecond message notifying means that re-notifies the receiving-side user of the message of which the determining means has determined that the re-notification condition is met.
