Abstract

One embodiment of the invention involves a computer-implemented method in which information obtained from a uniform resource locator is converted into at least one texture (503). The texture is mapped onto a surface of a three-dimensional object (505) located in the virtual three-dimensional space (500) thereby forming a three-dimensional navigation mechanism.
