[0143] An information processing apparatus and an information processing method in Embodiment 3 will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 8. An information processing system in Embodiment 3 has the same constitution as that in Embodiment 2 (FIG. 5). [0144] In the information processing system in Embodiment 3, the input part 511 outputs keyword information to the URL access information generating part 1210 of the URL list processing part 124, not to the URL list request information generating part 122. The URL list request information generating part 122 generates and outputs the URL list request information including no keyword information. The URL list extracting part 152 generates or selects the URL list (including URL associated with various keywords) on the basis of only identifier, and transmits the URL list to the URL access information generating part 1210 of the URL list processing part 124 through the communicating part 151, the ISP 18 and the communicating part 123. The URL access information generating part 1210 selects the URL that includes the keyword information inputted from the input part 511 (such as “cosmetics”)from the inputted URL list, and in order to get access the selected URL, generates and outputs URL access information. The URL information processing part 129 obtains URL information from Internet through the communicating part 123 and the ISP 18. [0145] The information processing system in Embodiment 3 is different from that in Embodiment 2 in the above-mentioned points. Both of the information processing systems are identical to each other in other points. [0146] [0146]FIG. 8 shows a flowchart of the information processing method using the information processing system according to Embodiment 3. The information processing method as shown in FIG. 8 has steps 801 to 816. [0147] Initial steps are carried out in the information processing apparatus. [0148] At the step 801, the user inputs the identifier of an individual or apparatus by using a device such as a credit card. At the step 802, URL list request information including the identifier inputted at the previous step is generated. At the step 803, the URL list request information generated at the previous step is transmitted to the URL list providing apparatus. [0149] The following steps are carried out in the URL list providing apparatus. [0150] At the step 804, the URL list request information transmitted from the information providing apparatus is received. At the step 805, the URL list (including keyword information) associated with the identifier included in the received URL list request information is generated or selected. At the step 806, the URL list generated or selected at the previous step is transmitted to the information processing apparatus. [0151] The following steps are carried out in the information processing apparatus. [0152] At the step 807, the URL list is received from the URL list providing apparatus 15. At the step 808, the store or the user inputs keyword information of the information in which it becomes interested. The URL associated with the keyword information is selected from the URL list received at the previous step, and access information of the URL to be accessed is generated. At the step 809, the URL access information generated at the previous step is transmitted. At the step 810, according to the URL access information, the information transmitted from the URL is received. At the step 811, on the basis of the information received at the previous step, an image signal or an audio signal is outputted. At the step 812, it is judged whether the entire image signal can be displayed at a time or not. At the step 812, in the case where it is judged that the entire image signal can be displayed at a time, operation proceeds to the step 814. At the step 812, in the case where it is judged that the entire image signal cannot be displayed at a time, the image signal is displayed while being scrolled at a constant speed at the step 813, and the operation proceeds to the step 814. At the step 814, it is judged whether time during which the URL is displayed has exceeded the predetermined time or not. In the case where it is judged that time during which the image signal is displayed has exceeded the predetermined time, operation proceeds to the step 815. In the case where it is judged that time during which the image signal is displayed has not exceeded the predetermined time, the URL continues to be displayed and after a certain time, decision at the step 814 is performed again. At the step 815, it is judged whether current URL on display is the last URL or not. In the case where it is the last URL, display of URL is finished. In the case of where it is not last URL, at the step 816, next URL associated with the keyword information is selected from the URL list, and URL access information is generated. And then, the operation proceeds to the step 809 and the generated URL access information is transmitted to the Internet. [0153] The information processing system in Embodiment 3 has similar effects to that in Embodiment 2. [0154] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide the URL list providing apparatus on the Internet, generate the URL list from the identifier of cellular phone, credit card and so on, and offer information suited to the user's preference. [0155] According to the present invention, it is also possible to obtain the advantageous effect of achieving the information processing apparatus, the information processing system and the information processing method that present URL information suited to the user's hobby and the like without necessity of the user's active access. [0156] Moreover, in the case where the user has purchased some product or received some service by using a credit card, cellular phone or the like, information on the purchased product or the received service can be collected as personal data. Since this enables detailed information on the basis of the user's preference to be obtained, it is also possible to provide the URL list that are more suitable for the user's preference. [0157] In contrast to the method of directly providing the user with information on the basis of the user's identifier, the URL list providing apparatus only transmits the URL list, and therefore the amount of information to be processed is small. By sending the URL list to each information processing apparatus, the URL list providing apparatus distributes burdens of processing to the information processing apparatuses and makes them to take charge of a part of processing of obtaining information from URL. [0158] The small-sized cheap URL list providing apparatus allows the user to receive high quality of information (such as information on products). Each information processing apparatus obtains URL information automatically according to the URL list and displays the information, thereby that the user can get various information without actively manipulating the apparatus. In the case where the obtained information is a large image signal, the user can read all information included therein by scrolling the image at a predetermined speed. [0159] According to the present information, it is possible to realize the information processing apparatus that the user can get access to an optional URL with the cellular phone and participate in a prize competition, on the basis of the inputted advertising information. [0160] Although the invention has been described in its preferred form with a certain degree of particularity, it is understood that the present disclosure of the preferred form has been changed in the details of construction and the combination and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and the scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
