The Rowing Vortal uses a zoom tool to navigate the hierarchy. Beware of sea-sickness.

Actually, that's an idea used on http://relevare.com/ which has been designed by the good guys at http://fourm.com/

Anyway, interesting.

We know who fourm.com are but Relevare does its own design work. Who said they designed relevare.com???

And relevare didn't invent zooming, as you imply.

I think this is one of the better examples of a zooming interface. But it still has a lot wrong with it, for example, the relavare designers chose to include the edges of adjacent zones in a main screen, allowing the user to "zoom" sideways. This important omission by the rowingvortal people contributes to that bobbing sea sicky feeling. Ugh!

I was shocked and very pleased to see that the back button works correctly, not sure if this is something new or I just never noticed it. Most flash pieces don't work correctly with the browsers back button.

The Browser back button working within Flash is the first of its kind and was developed by the relevare team.

A quicknote to Verbosus regarding his comments

"Actually, that's an idea used on http://relevare.com/ which has been designed by the good guys at http://fourm.com/"

We know Craig and Natzke from Fourm who had nothing to do with the design of the Relevare navigation or site.
