1. A network system comprising a plurality of terminals and a server,said server including:
- a server communication device for communicating with said plurality of terminals;
a memory for storing, for each room corresponding to a user of each of said plurality of terminals, contents and a status showing a state of said terminal; and
a server processor having first server control storing said status transmitted from said terminal in said memory, said status being associated with the room corresponding to the user of said terminal, and second server control referring to said memory in accordance with designation of said room transmitted from said terminal, to transmit said contents and said status associated with said designated room to said terminal,each of said plurality of terminals including;
a display;
an input device;
a terminal communication device for communicating with said server; and
a terminal processor having first terminal control transmitting the state of a user'"'"'s own terminal as said status to said server, and second terminal control transmitting the designation of said room input through said input device to said server, to cause said display to show said contents and said status corresponding to said designated room transmitted from said server.

Abstract
A network system includes a server and a plurality of terminals. The server stores contents and a status showing the state of the terminal for each room. The server stores the status received from the terminal and associated with the room, and transmits the contents and the status associated with the designated room to the terminal. Each of the plurality of terminals transmits the status to the server, transmits designation of the room input through an input device to the server, and causes a display to show the contents and the status received from the server.
