Abstract :
An icon-based graphical user interface (GUI) for mobile phones - which displays various contents without discrimination - was developed. The icons move around on the display and change their graphics or captions when linked contents are renewed. The moving icons can be browsed at ease, and contents that may not have been noticed in a normal text-based interface may be discovered. This interface is designed as a new portal to unknown or new contents.
