Abstract
This paper describes the design and development of a novel system which allows non experienced users to easily interact with digital information and other users. In particular, the system allows the user to receive, handle and send media elements (pictures, text messages, videos). Instead of employing the file system to interact with information, the user interface promotes a kind of interaction which relies on spatial and temporal memory, which we believe to be more adequate.
