One or more second nodes of the personal connection group are connected to the first node and correspond to one or more second users who have friend setting relation or information providing relation with the first user. A personal connection map providing unit (240) provides a personal connection map. At least one of the first node and the second node is mapped with a cell unit area, which separates a specific area by using a cell unit, in the personal connection map.
