Abstract:
A user profile information providing method for a messaging server that provides an instant messaging service to provide user profile information, includes: receiving private profile information set in a terminal of a user who uses the instant messaging service for a targeted friend; storing the private profile information corresponding to the targeted friend; and transmitting the private profile information to a terminal of the targeted friend. The private profile information is displayed differently from default profile information of the user, and is displayed as a profile of the user only in the terminal of the targeted friend. The default profile information is displayed as a profile of the user in terminals of friends, in which the private profile information is not set, among friends of the user.
