and Web Button URLs

Google is the default setting for both the Search URL and Web Button URL and is used until you customize it to web page addresses of your choice.

Search URL setting

The Search URL is the web page a user is taken to if they select an entry (Directory listing) in your world that has not yet been associ- ated with a custom URL or other action. This happens, for example, when an object has been tagged with a label and uploaded, but no action has yet been associated with the tag.

Web Button URL setting

The Web Button URL setting lets you assign a custom URL for what can be considered a home page for your world. The client application supports a softkey web button that launches your assigned URL when selected.

Nseries specifications

The Nokia Nseries, launched in the mid-2000s, represented a groundbreaking line of multimedia smartphones that combined innovative technology with sleek designs. This series reinvigorated Nokia’s reputation as a leader in mobile phone technology while catering to a new generation of tech-savvy users looking for powerful devices that could handle various multimedia tasks.

One of the standout features of the Nokia Nseries was its commitment to high-quality multimedia capabilities. Equipped with advanced cameras, many models boasted Carl Zeiss optics, allowing users to capture stunning photos and videos. The Nokia N95, for instance, featured a 5-megapixel camera that set a new standard for mobile photography. In addition, the Nseries often included dedicated multimedia buttons, making it easier for users to access their favorite media apps and functions.

Displaying vibrant colors and impressive clarity, the Nseries devices typically used high-resolution screens. These displays not only enhanced the multimedia experience but also made browsing the internet, reading e-books, and enjoying games visually engaging. The inclusion of features like a built-in music player supported a rich audio experience, with many models offering support for various audio formats.

Connectivity was another hallmark of the Nseries. Users could expect 3G capabilities, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth support, allowing seamless sharing and downloading of content. The devices also usually incorporated GPS functionality, a feature that became increasingly important for navigation and location-based services, marking the Nseries as a pioneer in integrating location technology into mobile phones.

Software-wise, Nokia Nseries phones ran on the Symbian operating system. While not as user-friendly as later platforms, Symbian provided users with a level of customization and extensive app availability through the Nokia Software Market. This allowed users to personalize their devices according to their preferences, maximizing their utility.

The Nokia Nseries encapsulated a perfect balance of form and function. The sleek designs and premium materials reflected Nokia’s commitment to quality, while the powerful features emphasized the trend towards multimedia smartphones. By combining photography, video, music, and internet capabilities, the Nseries paved the way for today's smartphones, influencing how devices are designed and utilized in modern life. Though the series has been discontinued, its legacy remains visible in the evolution of mobile technology.
