14 DAY TRIAL // The latest application proposed by the Finnish terminal producer is suitable for all Series 2.0+ platforms and its purpose is the establishing of an external communication channel with users outside the range of a Bluetooth network.
Although it has a lot of sophisticated names, like application for smartphone and Bluetooth socializing, Nokia?s Sensor has a simple function: to connect the user to a system where it can post information on a homepage (dubbed folio). This page can be accessed by other users who want to share information (photographs, personal video and audio files), write messages in the Guestbook or just read the profile filled in by the owner.
The program works by scanning the area for other users who have their Bluetooth activated, a setting that can run passively on the cell phone. Once the connection between the two terminals is established, users can read the information posted by the other, send messages or exchange files.
There is also the possibility of setting alerts according to who shows up in the network, Group Codes which set the personal page to alert when someone with similar hobbies and interests show up in the area. The guestbook allows visitors of the folio to write messages or comments, and according to the counting function, it will point out precisely the number of users that viewed your page, this being the criteria for establishing the popularity of a user.
Unfortunately, this program will show its true potential only in a network with lots of users.
