If, like me, you are constantly on the look out for new and interesting ways to navigate through a site you will love this one from John Iacoviello. Given a simple circle as the main navigation tool you click and drag to move the bar around the circle. Each segment of the nav is a section of his site and the colour coding helps you to move to different sections. This is something unique I think and really quite intuitive. Oh and also there are a bunch of flash actions available for you to download so check out the yellow section if you are a fellow Flashter.

I really like this novel way to navigate through a site. It is basically a time machine of sorts allowing you to go back and see what you have been looking at in the past. Say you are browsing for items in Amazon this feature would be a visual way of navigating through your past choices. I think the execution of this is really nice and the spiral of images works well. I also like the way you can toss images to one side (this could be used in a different way: I'd like to see it implemented as a selection method whereby you could toss things onto an area and that would set up say a wish list for want of a better example).
