Abstract

A technique for connecting a unique identifier to a data object is described. The connecting of a unique identifier such as a telephone number or an internet address such as an IPv6 address, to a specific data object, hereafter referred to as phonepage, will allow an A-party direct access to information that a B-party or B-party user equipment wishes to display to a connecting party. The phonepage resides in a memory in a telecommunications or data network. The phonepage may have a similar appearance to an Internet web page, but may also take other appearances. The displaying or processing of the phonepage may be made dependent upon the capabilities of the A-party user equipment.
