Abstract:
1. An apparatus for presenting content, comprising: a selection unit configured to select first content as a processing object; a timer configured to generate time information; a detection unit configured to detect a change time when at least a part of the first content is changed to second content, based on the time information; a calculation unit configured to calculate relevance between each of relational candidate contents, and each of the first content and the second content; a content acquisition unit configured to acquire relational content from the relational candidate contents based on the relevance, the relational content being related to both the first content and the second content; a layout unit configured to symbolically lay out the second content and the relational content in a virtual space; and a presentation unit configured to visually present the virtual space, wherein, as time passes from the change time, the calculation unit calculates the relevance so that a contribution ratio between relational candidate contents and the second content is larger while a contribution ratio between relational candidate contents and the first content is smaller.
