Abstract

A personal service support method for assisting an inquiry about a user operation in a virtual world, a computer program product, and a system for the same. The method includes: storing a dialog between a user and an agent; connecting the dialog in a list structure with another dialog in the list structure to produce a created dialog in a branch tree structure; and recording the created dialog in the branch tree structure. The computer program product tangibly embodies instructions which when implemented causes a computer to execute the steps of the method. The system includes: a dialog storage unit which stores a dialog between a user and an agent; and a dialog creating unit which connects the dialog in the list structure with another dialog in the list structure to create a dialog in a branch tree structure.
