Amazon Window Shop

Simple, intuitive and immersive interface that allows the user to browse and buy best-selling products.

Digg Labs

Probably old news, but I came across this a few days ago and have been impressed with the data visualisation techniques - quite mesmerising to just sit and watch.

I'm actually using Big Spy and Pics to find all kinds of interesting news articles!

Workology

Workology is a community of professionals, organisations and businesses who create work opportunities for each other - flexible, contract, project-partners, voluntary, etc.

Might have to join up and give it a try ;-)

New York Talk Exchange

Impressive data visualisation that illustrates the global exchange of information in real time of long distance telephone and IP data flowing between New York and cities around the world.

Google Lively

Google launched a new service today called Lively, a browser based virtual world add-on that lets users create and customize avatars and worlds and interact with other users in these rich environments.

I am Mac-based, so can't try it out as yet - please let me know if it's any good ;-)

Twistori

First person visualisation of Twitter. Messages are filtered by occurrences of emotional phrases and placed in a visual scrolling message ticker. It's very interesting to just sit and watch for a while...

Fontstruct

Elegant, intuitive and well executed online application for generating your own grid-based fonts. There's also an extensive library of previously created fonts available for download - some of them are fantastic.

Ffffound! Image Bookmarking

Ffffound! is a web service that not only allows the users to post and share their favorite images found on the web, but also dynamically recommends each user's tastes and interests for an inspirational image-bookmarking experience!!

Absolutely love this - been spending an awful lot of time here...

Social Wallpapering

I've always had a broad spectrum of different desktops to swap between and this is a great repository for diverse high quality imagery (I've been downloading loads of stuff). The added dimension here is being able to run refined searches, upload and rate, etc.
