The first site of the week is http://www.searchme.com

The concept of this site is very cool and innovative in that the search results are displayed visually. Rather than scrolling through text based search results, this site loads the front page of each result and allows you to flip through it at a glance. The layout is very similar to the album browser found on the iPod touch and iPhone. All you have to do is enter an email to try out the beta, so give it a shot! The best part is that it works smoothly and efficiently...very impressive.
fun to play with, neat implementation, but ultimately useless because it's a huge waste of screen estate. Live Image Search's infinite scroll idea is far more practical, I use it with Google search (with thumbnails :D) and Google Image search, saves a lot of effort.
