RedZee
RedZee (of the charming and strange red-striped creature) offers an intriguing new way to get search results. Rather than a wordy list of results, you get small screen captures of the sites that match your search to scroll through. There will be large black holes in your results, but the majority of sites are there. Just give the image you are interested in a double click and you are off. My only issue is that you are stuck in a RedZee frame rather than going to the real site, which is a pain and for a Web 2.0 site is a strange mix of 2.0 and old-fashioned link love theft.
The results of the search are also somewhat limited and the interface can be quirky. I found myself struggling to get it to type a new search. But it is worth exploring and is graphically interesting as well.

I lika-like. This could be awesome for kids. I'll have to play a bit with it and see.
