PaperClick ToGo greatly simplifies the process

a cellular phone. Instead of struggling with the numeric
keypad to enter the alphabetic characters comprising a URL,
simply enter the numeric PaperClick code and the requested
page is instantly available.
Cellular telephone carriers can stimulate increased use
of the Internet services by providing PaperClick ToGo
as part of a standard Internet package. Wireless Application
Service Providers can drive traffic through all carriers
by linking numeric PaperClick ToGo codes
to World Wide Web addresses.
How
does PaperClick ToGo work?
Some
cellular phones are now equipped with microbrowsers that
can display condensed versions of web pages. These condensed
web pages have the same kind of lengthy URL's that regular
web pages do.
But
on cell phones entering a URL is a lot more trouble, since
cell phones don't have alphabetic keyboards. Entering a
number would be a lot easier!
The
microbrowser on a cell phone can access any page on the
web, as long as it uses one of the special formats designed
for cell phones. Take your microbrowser to this page: www.paperclick.com/wap/togo.asp
It should look like this:
Bookmark it immediately! Select the "next" function. You'll
see a screen that looks like this:
Then type a PaperClick code into the PaperClick ToGo
Window, using the numeric keypad of the cell phone.
Then select "go", and your microbrowser will take you to
the corresponding page on the web. It's a lot easier than
trying to type all those letters!
