First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . An information sharing system comprising:
a post reception unit configured to receive a post from a user; a display control unit configured to display a thumbnail indicating the post at a terminal device of the user for each received post; and a vote reception unit configured to receive a vote from the user to the post, wherein the display control unit changes a display aspect of the thumbnail according to a number of the votes received by the vote reception unit regarding the corresponding post, for each thumbnail.

2 . The information sharing system according to claim 1 , wherein the display control unit changes a size of the thumbnail according to the number of the votes as the display aspect.

3 . The information sharing system according to claim 1 , wherein content of the post includes music, moving images, places or photographs.

4 . The information sharing system according to claim 1 , comprising

5 . The information sharing system according to claim 4 , comprising:
a joining request reception unit configured to receive a joining request regarding synchronous output of content of the post from the user within the user group for each thread; and a content reproduction unit configured to output the content of the post preserved in the thread to the terminal device of the user within the user group, wherein the content reproduction unit synchronously outputs, based on a reproduction operation regarding the content in the terminal device of any user from whom the joining request is received, the content which is an object of the reproduction operation, in the terminal devices of all the users from whom the joining request is received.

6 . The information sharing system according to claim 5 , wherein the terminal device of the user from whom the joining request is not received by the joining request reception unit performs the reproduction operation of the content included in the post independent of the terminal devices of the other users.
