  1. T3h evil... by Saint+Aardvark · · Score: 4, Insightful · on Browsing the Web, One Sentence at a Time
    ...funkiest of all, dynamic display of an image pulled off the web based on keywords extracted from each sentence -- hey, turn all your web pages into slide shows today!

    Sweet Zombie Jesus, I did not spend my time turning off animated gifs, turning off Flash, stopping those stupid "download this plugin" buttons from popping up, using Google instead of Antarti.ca's let's-fly-over-the-web-in-a-low-flying-fighter-jet search engine, and running search-and-destroy missions on the remaining dancing baloney just to turn every web page into a goddamned sentence-by-sentence Powerpoint(tm) presentation!

    In the name of Tim Berners-Lee, who the hell comes up with this crap?

  2. Another example by BSDevil · · Score: 1 · on Kartoo Search Engine Presents Results as a Map

    This was done two or three years ago (if my memory serves me right) by the Antarcti.ca guys. It was hard to use then and still is.

    I don't know about how open source this is, but antarcti.ca can render computer networks into 2D or 3D maps. You might also want to check the slashdot story on this.

  4. We've got one too! by antarctican · · Score: 2, Insightful · on Review Of 3D Web Browsers
    At Antarcti.ca Systems (http://antarcti.ca) we've been working on the idea of geography based navigation for over two years. Both in 2d and 3d based maps, which can be seen at our demo site of http://map.net

    It's a facinating new era of data navigation, doing away with the old screens and screens of text and moving towards a paradigm closer to the real world.

  5. Data Visualization Products by antarctican · · Score: 3 · on Open Source, GIS and Data Visualization?
    This might be slightly off exactly what's being asked for, but one data visualization product that's now on the market is called VisualNet (http://antarcti.ca). It's designed to help users navigate large stores of information in a more meaningful manner.

    The other cool thing about it is the protocols and data formats it uses to transfer information in both it's 2D and 3D mode are publically available. The idea is in the same way Palms are popular because anyone can develop for them, that's the goal with this product.

    In fact, the 3D client is Open Source!

    I hope this might be some where close to the kind of tool you're looking for.

  6. And the correct URL is... by Brazilian+Geek · · Score: 2 · on 3D Computer Network Maps

    It's typed right but the URL is wrong, it's:

    Antarti.ca as in http://antarcti.ca.

    All browsers' default homepage should read: Don't Panic...

  7. Slight corrections... by beebware · · Score: 4 · on 3D Computer Network Maps

    Sorry, the URL's been manged - try http://www.antarcti.ca/ . Also I've heard back from 'my man inside' and it seems the 3D function only tends to work on IE5 due to XML implementation. They have considered using other 'display technologies' (such as SGML) but aren't sure which ones to go with.
