Was I supposed to click on Reply to complete my posting? I was unsure what to do. And this is supposed to be the easy part, especially for a guy who's been using computers since 1957. Now, will I ever get to use an auto-zooming user interface? Do we have a wiki for delving into zooming issues and practicing some sort of kaizen continual refinement of ideas? I was happy to see the links in the Wikipedia article on zooming interfaces an well as what Google reported but exploratory stuff should be collected someplace else.

I am the creator of zoomism.com - just something I did to learn Flash Actionscript

Normally I do graphic design, I studied contemporary art, and I actually lived from art painting too. Navigation by zooming was something I had in mind for nearly 15 years, since just when Flash got introduced (actually it was my girl friend who came up with that). But until today, I would say, computers had not been fast enough for ZUIs.

Richard, you can use the wiki on this group for just that! http://grou.ps/zooming/wiki

Hi, I'm a .NET dev working in the UK TV industry. Unfortunately my interest in zooming technologies (specifically Seadragon/DeepZoom) is purely personal but you never know

Although I've been interested in the technology for some time, and have followed the updates, I haven't had the time/occasion to use it. However, now I've started a private project of my own which will revolve around DeepZoom so I'm hoping to learn a lot here (and, of course, will share whatever I can discover myself!).
