Claim 1

An electronic meeting system where a plurality of clients access a virtual space provided by a server for exchanging information, said server comprising: a first communication unit that communicates information with said clients; a first analysis unit that analyzes the information when said first communication unit receives said information transmitted from said client; a first attribute extraction unit that extracts the attribute included in said information if said information is judged to be new information to be written in said virtual space as the result of analysis performed by said first analysis unit; a first memory unit that stores said attribute extracted by said first attribute extraction unit and said information which are correlated; and an information management unit that manages information stored in said first memory unit, and if said information is judged to be information that requires to be referred to the information stored in said first memory unit as the result of analysis performed by said first analysis unit, then extracts the corresponding information and supplies it to said first communication unit to return it to said client, said client comprising: a second communication unit that communicates information with said server; an input unit that receives desired information input; a second analysis unit for analyzing the information transmitted from said server and received from said second communication unit or the information entered by said input unit; a second attribute extraction unit that extracts the attribute included in the information if the information is judged to be information to be displayed as output as the result of analysis performed by said second analysis unit; a second memory unit that stores the attribute extracted by said second attribute extraction unit; a selection unit that selects a desired attribute from among attributes stored in said second memory unit; and a display unit that displays an element in accordance with the information written in said virtual space in the form of display type corresponding to the attribute selected by said selection unit.

Claim 19

A medium which a computer can read and which has a stored program for making said computer access virtual space provided by a server for performing information exchange processing, wherein said program for making said computer function as: a communication unit that communicates information with said server; an input unit that receives desired information input; an analysis unit that analyzes the information transmitted from said server which is received by said communication unit or the information supplied from said input unit; an attribute extraction unit that extracts the attribute included in the information if the information is judged to be displayed as output as the result of analysis performed by said analysis unit; a memory unit that stores the attribute extracted by said attribute extraction unit; a selection unit that selects a desired attribute from among attributes stored in said memory unit; and a display unit that displays an element in accordance with the information written in said virtual space in the form of display type which is selected by said selection unit.

Claim 20

A medium which a computer can read and which has a stored program for making said computer access virtual space provided by a server for performing information exchange processing, wherein said program for making said computer function as: a communication unit that communicates information with said server; an input unit that receives desired information input; an analysis unit that analyzes the information transmitted from said server which is received by said communication unit or the information supplied from said input unit; an attribute extraction unit that extracts the attribute included in the information if the information is judged to be displayed as output as the result of analysis performed by said analysis unit; a memory unit that stores the attribute extracted by said attribute extraction unit; a selection unit that selects a desired attribute from among attributes stored in said memory unit; and a display unit that displays an element in accordance with the information written in said virtual space in the form of display type which is selected by said selection unit.
