3. The method of claim 1 , characterized in that, said first information content comprises platform information and/or address information of said network information platform, and said information related to content update further comprises second information content, which includes specific content of the update and/or link address of the update content.
4. The method of claim 1 , characterized in that, after the step of saving said information related to content update in said first part, further comprising: displaying said contact object record in said contact list distinctively, to prompt said user that said information related to content update has been saved in said contact object record.
5. The method of claim 1 , characterized in that, before receiving said information related to content update, said second electronic device previously subscribes to said information related to content update when said network information platform updates content, wherein the step of said second electronic device previously subscribing to said information related to content update particularly comprises: registering a subscription service to said first electronic device, saving identity authentication information of said second electronic device as well as saving a network platform subscription record that corresponds to said second electronic device in a subscription address list of said first electronic device.
6. The method of claim 1 , characterized in that, said second electronic device is a mobile terminal, and before receiving said information related to content update, said mobile terminal previously subscribes to said information related to content update when said network information platform updates content, wherein the step of said mobile terminal previously subscribing to said information related to content update particularly comprises: registering subscription service information to a mobile communication server, said subscription service information including a mobile communication number of said mobile terminal and a network platform subscription record that corresponds to said mobile terminal, storing said subscription service information in a subscription list by said mobile communication server, and there being established a network interface connection previously between said mobile communication server and said first electronic device.
7. The method of claim 1 , characterized in that, before receiving said information related to content update sent by said first electronic device, further comprising: acquiring content update status of said network information platform from a third electronic device, wherein said third electronic device previously stores a network platform subscription record of said second electronic device, and inquires said first electronic device for said content update status at an interval of a preset time; according to said content update status, sending a retrieving request for the content update of said network information platform to said first electronic device.
8. The method of claim 1 , characterized in that, before receiving said information related to content update sent by said first electronic device, further comprising: acquiring content update status of said network information platform from a third electronic device, wherein said third electronic device previously stores a network platform subscription record of said second electronic device, and inquires said first electronic device for said content update status at an interval of a preset time; according to said content update status, sending a retrieving request for the content update of said network information platform to said third electronic device; receiving said information related to content update from said third electronic device, wherein said third electronic device, according to said content update status, previously acquires said information related to content update from said first electronic device and saves it.
9. The method of claim 1 , characterized in that, before receiving said information related to content update sent by said first electronic device, further comprising: acquiring content update status of said network information platform from a third electronic device, said third electronic device previously storing a network platform subscription record of said second electronic device and inquiring said first electronic device for said content update status at an interval of a preset time; receiving said information related to content update from said third electronic device, wherein said third electronic device, according to said content update status, previously acquires said information related to content update from said first electronic device and saves it.
10. An electronic device for viewing information published on the network, connected with at least one network platform server via a network, characterized in that, said electronic device comprising: an information receiving unit, which is used to receive information related to content update which is sent according to previous subscription of said electronic device when a network information platform on said network platform server updates content; a storing unit, which is used to store a contact list that includes at least one contact object record, a first part of said contact object record being used to store said information related to content update, and a second part of said contact object record being used to save contact object information of said contact object record, said network information platform corresponding to said contact object record through said contact object information; a displaying unit, which is used to display said first part and said second part in a first area and a second area respectively, wherein after the information receiving unit receives said information related to content update sent by said first electronic device, the electronic device further acquires first information content of said information related to content update, and compares said first information content with a network platform subscription record, which is saved in a contact comparison table, when it is determined that said first information content has not previously been recorded in said network platform subscription record, the electronic device prompts a user whether or not to specify the corresponding contact object record of said network information platform, and judges whether or not an instruction for specifying said corresponding contact object record is received, and when the judgment result is yes, then according to the corresponding contact object information inputted in said instruction, the electronic device searches for and obtaining said contact object record in said contact list, said corresponding contact object information being saved in the second part of said contact object record: when the judgment result is no, then the information receiving unit receives and the displaying unit displays said information related to content update in the form of a short message.
