First came Flickrmappr, now comes Flickrgraph. Created by the same people who brought us Google Newsmap and Social Circles, Flickrgraph is an application that visualizes the social relationships inside flickr.com. It makes use of the classic attraction-repulsion algorithm for graphs.

AgencyNet
Here's a nice experiential site that allows the user to navigate across multiple rooms from a bird's-eye perspective. Each room houses a different story that is served up to the user in an embedded rotoscoped video. The experience is nice, the execution is smooth, but the storytelling and narrative are bland.

Google Maps Beta
Yesterday, Google introduced their new mapping feature to an already dope feature set. It has a few really cool interactions which include the click-and-drag panning of the maps. The response time is amazingly fast and the panning is so-so smooth. Users can drag the map aound directly with the mouse or use the keybaord keys to move the map. There is no real need to use the controls at all, or even touch your mouse. Additionally, the driving directions feature is by far the most advanced I have ever seen for a mapping site. Click on any of the directional steps to view an info bubble next to each step.
