does anyone remember an old internet browsing method that was proposed either in the 90's or early 2000's that looked like a 3d concept map which visualized the hyperlinks in a strange three dimensional constellation-like browser? I recall reading about it a long time ago in an article about proposed web browsers that failed for various reasons.

not this.
it has been over a decade since I've seen a screenshot of it, but it looked similar to the aero tab flip thing in windows 10, except it had a black background, the "windows" were the websites, and they were spread out in an array based on how many pages were linked to any particular page with lines going to and from each page

I only remember it from an old Ziff Davis or some other tech site's article on proposed web browsing methods. They had featured a few different methods with the method I'm looking for being one of them. I only saw a screenshot of the interface and it looked similar to this attached mockup.
I'm interested in seeing how the real program matches my memory of it, once someone finds what I'm looking for.

That sounds like it failed because it'd be super inconvenient to load ALL of them. Nowadays not feasible to actually do because sites aren't static and are huge. Could be mitigated by just taking a picture of the site. Neat browsing thing, but there are just SO MANY links on the web now. I mean, do you want every board, the legal page, the about page,and every other page spread out around the current one?

I'm not saying that it was practical, I'm only looking for the name of the browser so I can read up on it.
Jeremiah Bell
No, I was making fun of your mockup since it uses the same site every time. I like the concept.

Sounds kinda like keyword/tag clouds

I vaguely remember this. It's possible now, but not profitable in that it's harder to monetize and more resource intensive. Google wants people to pay for exposure.

I REMEMBER THIS OP.
I DON'T THINK IT WAS A BROWSER, THINK IT WAS FOR YOUR DESKTOP.

I think it was for Windows 98/2000/XP. I got a copy on a demo CD from a gaming magazine.
It was really slow and primitive. for some reason sphere or circle comes to mind in the name...

interesting. I might have to resort to emailing Leo Laporte about this

You are thinking of Xanadu, OP.
A method of tracing documents through hyperlinks. It never materialized because the author was a futurist. It was hella cool though.

damn this might be it. thanks dude. is there any software similar to this now?
