how many 4 year olds use nokia maps

this reminded me of the telly-tubbies - are they aiming this at the 4 year old smartphone market!

seriously having a giant green thing acting and sounding like it had taken too much LSD for it's own good wouldn't be my first choice of a presenter!

er...

It looked ok...loading...I...loading...guess...loading.

Yet another flash infestation. I heard something about a new web standard that will make flash redundant - I hope it's true and it couldn't come too soon IMO :(

...and they named it 'Flash'! What a misnomer...all it does is slow everything down. OK, that's not all it does, but from a user point of view, that's the main thing *I* see. They should have called it 'Slug'.

Also, I didn't really notice any earthquake effect of any significance, but IMO it would have been somewhat untimely - sensitivity-wise - anyway.

Unregistered you need the password when you download the mapsters media kit.

tomsky I didn't seem to need a username or password to get in and play the flash game, but maybe its just me...

Unfortunately, I used the superpower first off, so the whole thing seemed a bit short on replay value...

Shock horror: Nokia's maps are created by aliens and robots...

Nokia's latest Flash-based novelty site is about to go live. The Mapsters are a small tribe of robots and err. aliens, who specialise in trampling on perfectly good cities and turning them into two-dimensional maps. For a preview go to www.themapsters.com/preview and use username 'mapsters' and password 'preview'. And there we were thinking that Nokia's Maps were created by the Navteq people.... (atch out for the jaw-dropping Flash earthquake effect in the opening sequence)

Read on in the full article.
