SpaceTime has announced the public beta release of their 3D search interface, which takes advantage of high powered graphics and fast broadband connections to enable users to visually search web sites for hundreds of items at a time. SpaceTime presents search result as a stack of separate images in a 3D space, which users can fly through to find what they are looking for (see screenshot). Each SpaceTime image shows a preview of the page pointed to by the search results, so that users can quickly see which page visually matches the content they seek. SpaceTime also keeps track of every search by cataloging it with icons on a "Timeline" located at the bottom of the program. Users can click on the Timeline icons to jump quickly between different searches (see User Guide). The program currently visualizes search results from Google and eBay, and the company plans to support additional web services in the future, including Amazon, YouTube, Email, MySpace, Music, and RSS feeds. SpaceTime runs on Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Vista, and the beta can be downloaded for free here.
