Navigation through
information available on the world wide web and other large
datasets nowadays is a one-dimensional task: The whole world
of information spans between the "backward"- and "forward"-button
of your favorite browser. "Going" back to a piece of data
you spoted a few minutes ago forces you to predict the number
of times you would have to click on one of these buttons
in order to get there.
We dream of a truly
threedimensional information space, making movement in it
as natural as walking through a city.
