SeaDragon and Magic Ink

Connie’s Friday Fillip [1] of a while back included a link to this amazing paper, Magic Ink [2], which reconceptualizes computer programming as information design and graphical design. Combined with this startling presentation [3] from TED of what Microsoft is doing with SeaDragon, which allows endless zooming in and out, I think the end of the HTML website is nigh. Imagine a Google Earth of your entire collection, only you design the landscape. Time to learn more about the graphical representation of information [4].
