3D Browser

I've known a lil about this application for some time now, so some of you may know about this as well... if not well... here's a neat toy to play with

Introducing SpaceTime 3D

3D Browsing 3D Search 3D Shopping 3D Video Search

Now I dont use this as my primary browser, but i always forget to install it when doing a format/reinstall. Today i stumbled across it again in my archives.

Visit SpaceTime™

There you will see a demo and available download.

By the way.... after watching the demo, does anything look familiar to you? Keep in mind this browswer is kind of old... i think 2 years.... THO it DOES work with 7


This would be great implmented with a tablet pc or touchscreen IMO.





Have fun :)

hey digger....
thanks for bringing this to my attention...
i already use something like this, its called Cooliris (used to be know as piclens when it came out) its very similar but it is dependent of the browser (which i use with firefox with)

correct. I now remember cooliris. So TY sir, lol... had forgotten about this one, as i found it the same time i found spacetime... haha.... Have to wipe out the cob webs every once in awhile, like a pc, it seems to collect alot of dust over the years

I should try it just for fun
I'm not a big fan of "3D interface" because it's often a lose of control and a wast of time. But somtimes it's fun to have a little change

I made me the same reflexion when I saw the demo.

This kind of visual interface MUST be used with a multitouch screen


Edit: Ok, I tried it. t's fun but tricky to use with a mouse. So it's really something you do have tu use with a touchescreen .. or something like a spacenavigator.
Dx9 render is good, maybe it would be a little better in WPF (for Vista/Seven)

This specific product doesn't look that useful to me, but in general, I bet Apple could pull off a nice coverflow like interface where the current tab is the center and you can select other tabs just like you would any other content that Apple currently uses coverflow for. It wouldn't be the most space efficient idea, but it would make tab selection much more visual.

great i get the error that it can't initialize the internal 3d engine .
