Abstract
An information delivery system of the present invention includes mobile communication terminals and an information delivery apparatus. The information delivery apparatus selectively delivers information to the mobile communication terminals via a communication network, and includes delivery information memory means, location history information memory means, delivery information selecting means, and information transmitting means. The location history information memory means memorizes location history information showing locations where a mobile communication terminal was located in the past. The delivery information selecting means selects delivery information to be transmitted to the mobile communication terminal according to predetermined selection conditions based on the location history information read out from the location history information memory means. The information transmitting means transmits the delivery information selected by the delivery information selecting means to the mobile communication terminal.
