Exploring visual interfaces for Search
Hi, hypernarrative is a blog by Wilbert Baan about Art, Media and Technology with a focus on interactive storytelling. If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed with Google or Netvibes. I'll post a few messages a week. Thanks for visiting!
Thursday I wrote about Oskope and how a visual interface could contribute in wandering through data with a strong visual identity. In other words; how you could sell books and DVD’s on the web.
In a reply to the article Anselm Spoerri of SearchCrystal.com send me an e-mail to tell me about a visual interface he is working on called Searchcrystal.
Searchcrystal (currently in beta) is a flash based website that organizes results from several search engines on a visual grid. Using space and size for representation of the results.
You can drag, click, compare and mash-up the results. You can even embed a result widget in your website. What I like about the website is the possibility to compare results from different sources visually. It gives you a good idea how different search engines work and what they see as more or less important.
Thanks for reading, you might also like
