Abstract
An acquisition unit acquires presence information of an information processing device of another via server. When the acquisition unit acquires pieces of presence information including the same user account from two or more information processing devices, a status image generation unit generates a status image indicating a status of the user identified by the user account, by referring to the latest presence information. In order to represent the status of the user, the status image generation unit includes a name of an application being run by the user in the status image.
