a location information storage unit configured to store location information of summarized content information, the summarized content information including location information of each content and a title of each content;
a summarized content information acquiring unit configured to acquire the summarized content information based on the location information of the summarized content information;
a display control unit configured to cause a display unit to display titles included in the summarized content information;
a title selection allowing unit configured to allow a user to select at least one title from the titles;
a location information specifying unit configured to specify, from the summarized content information, location information of content corresponding to the at least one title selected by the user;
a command sending unit configured to send a first type of command configured to cause activation of the browser by the information display device, and to send a second type of command including the specified location information to the information display device; and
a determination unit configured to determine, when a first title is selected by the user, whether the browser, which was previously activated based on a previous transmission of the first type of command, is currently closed or activated,wherein the command sending unit is configured to, when the first title is selected, send the first type of command at a current time and to send the second type of command including first location information of a first content corresponding to the first title after sending the first type of command at the current time when it is determined that the previously activated browser is currently closed, andwherein the command sending unit is further configured to, when the first title is selected, send the second type of command including the first location information at the current time without sending the first type of command when it is determined that the previously activated browser is currently activated.

Abstract
A content display system may be provided with a communication device and an information display device. The information display device may display contents by utilizing a browser. The communication device may store location information of summarized content information, acquire the summarized content information based on the location information of the summarized content information, display titles included in the summarized content information, allow a user to select at least one title from the titles, specify first location information of a first content corresponding to a first title selected by the user, and send a command for displaying the first content corresponding to the first location information. The information display device may receive the command, and activate the browser in accordance with a first type of command in a specific case where the browser has been closed which had been activated in accordance with an other first type of command having been sent from the communication device before receiving the first type of command.
