First Claim
1. An information distributing device comprising:
- a memory for storing a predetermined moving path of a user, the predetermined moving path being determined by the user;
a distribution information entry unit for receiving distribution information from a remote source, the distribution information including position information;
a determination unit for determining whether there is a predetermined relationship between the predetermined moving path stored in said memory and the position information included in the distribution information; and

Abstract
An information distributing machine distributes only information comparatively related to a user. The information distributing machine has a memory for storing a moving path of every user. The information distributing machine also has a distribution information entry unit for accepting distribution information including position information. A controller determines whether there is particular relationship between the moving path stored in the memory and the position information included in the distribution information. The information distribution machine transmits the distribution information to a user when there is the relationship between the moving path of that user and the position information.
