Subject: Prototype: Collaborative research on a virtual desk
Prototype URL: http://students.info.uaic.ro/~evalica/upload/mozilla/concept.svg

== Description ==
I present the concept of organizing tabs in working spaces. A working
space lets you save tabs in task based contexts.
Working spaces can be visualized in an isometric way, offering a
general view of activity and showing aspects like "Flow view", that
visualize the user's path to the saved tabs in a parent - child
relationship.

Observation: When you hit "back" you can see the isometric flow with
the current tab selected in the flow (and also with the parents path
to it). I've not implemented how you could search through the tabs,
but the idea is: you use your awesome bar (eventually prefixed with a
word like "tabs") and write your query. The relevant tabs will appear
while the other will fade (just like in the prototype - the current
page is on, and the rest are faded).

Observation: if the isometric view is loading kind of slow please be
patient, it was to redraw all the objects within

== Implementation ==
You can find a map of hover zones for the prototype at
http://www.flickr.com/photos/evalica/3439165966/ and a map of click
zones for the prototype at http://www.flickr.com/photos/evalica/3438352805/.

The prototype had been done in SVG using Inkscape. The dynamic
elements are done using JavaScript, HTML and CSS over the SVG DOM.

These guys http://google-code-updates.blogspot.com/2009/04/toward-open-web-stand...
want to skip the isometric part (2D simulating 3D) and go directly to
3D. nice :P

omG - Organizing Online Documents http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5-T_S50Sr4
A visualization similar to my isometric tabs view.

The search I had in mind can be done with the awesome bar, by direct
querying and with tabs keeping their position that fade away.
In their video they have a SMILE type time control and the documents
just disappear.

Very nice  and it's 1990.
