CornFlex has coming up with a neat way to incorporate Papervision and the new GoogleMaps api. It is a little primitive, but has a lot of potential. This would be a really cool screen saver.

The FWA Theater recently opened it’s doors and is showcasing a new interface called FiV. This new interface/platform is developed by Fantasy Interactive. It has the typical Fi look and feel that has plagued made a name for Fi for years. The FiV system seems to be a great fit for those that have a lot of video content and need to have it organized and easy to navigate. With the rise in bandwidth speeds, more sites seem to be gearing towards video content. The only catch that I can think of is a site that can handle/afford the bandwidth of a system that has massive amounts of video content will probably have the budget and need to design their own system. Could you imagine Hulu using this system instead of their own?

This would be a great tool if it was cheap (think Slideshow Pro), and could handle smaller amounts of video content gracefully without looking empty. Future potential could then be an online video editing suite add-on (think Slideshow Pro Director) and Live Video stream support.

I don’t believe this system will take off to quickly, but has a great potential.

Web developers have to stay sharp, the technology changes constantly and if you don’t keep up, you get left in the virtual dust. Six Revisions has put together a pretty comprehensive list to help you fill up your Google Reader. Granted this list is mostly design/interaction orientated, I still find it useful for inspiration and to get a clear view at what others are doing. Feel free to check out another list from the same author that is basically the same thing, but with different sites.
