Claim 1:
2. An information processing apparatus configured to be used for communication via a virtual space between a first user that wishes to transmit an information and a second user capable of receiving the information, the information processing apparatus comprising:
an object position specification unit configured to specify a position of an object corresponding to the first user and the second user within the virtual space,
an input information acquisition unit configured to acquire an input information related to the first user,
a distance information acquisition unit configured to acquire a distance information related to a distance between the first user and the second user based on a position of each of the objects specified by the object position specification unit, and
a condition determination unit configured to determine a condition for generating an output information to be output to each of the second users based on the distance information and the input information,
wherein the output information is distributed to each of the second users by relaying the output information to each of the second users via a relay system, and
the server determines the order of relay of the output information based on the distance.
