PicLens- Immersive Slideshows
Mar 18th, 2008 by Mark Spahr
PicLens is a very cool plugin for your browser that takes images and creates a 3D Wall of images.
From their web site:
PicLens instantly transforms your browser into a full-screen, 3D experience for viewing images on the web. Photos will come to life via a cinematic presentation that goes well beyond the confines of the traditional browser window. With PicLens, browsing and viewing images on the web will never be the same again. Our new interactive “3D Wall” lets you effortlessly drag, click, and zoom your way around a wall of pictures for an extraordinary, full-screen viewing experience.
PicLens works with Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer and integrates with most online photo services like Flickr, Photobucket, and Picasa. Piclens makes online image searches faster and certainly more eye-pleasing. I tested it using Google Image Search. Instead of having to search through page after page of images to find the right picture, PicLens has a sort of slider bar on the bottom that is constantly loading more images the further you slide it to the right. When you find an image that piques your interest, clicking on it makes it bigger.
