        _New Age Navigation: Innovative Information Interfaces_

   For a forthcoming article, I am interested in identifying additional 
"innovative information interfaces."

 I am particularly interested in novel interfaces for e-journal collections, such as:

 the Topic Map in the High Wire Press collection 
[ http://highwire.stanford.edu/ ] [Browse using TopicMap, a graphical viewer ]  [What's this? : http://highwire.stanford.edu/help/hbt/ ]

AND

the Vivisimo [  http://vivisimo.com/] clustering offered in the Institute of Physics (IOP) e-journal collection [http://www.iop.org/ ] 

[ http://www.infotoday.com/newsbreaks/nb020325-2.htm ]

In addition, I am interested in innovative interfaces such as those found in the AquaBrowser        

                 [http://www.medialab.nl/engels/aquabrowser/index.html ]
AND 

Kartoo [http://www.kartoo.com ]

 [  http://www.kartoo.net/en/pgpresseecran.html]

   I am also interested innovative OPAC interfaces such as the 3D virtual reality interface to the library/catalog of the Médiathèque 
[ http://mediatheque.ircam.fr/infos/vrml/ ] [Requires Cosmo plug-in]
[http://mediatheque.ircam.fr/articles/textes/Fingerhut99a/ ]

  As Always, Any and All contributions, comments, critiques, queries, questions, Cosmic Insights, Etc. are Most Welcome!

  Regards,
