a commercial website that uses a full-screen & visually impressive lay-out based on the well-known treemap visualization metaphor. users can switch between the 'accessible version' & the 'commercial suicide' one (the conventional plain html & the treemap representation respectively). different color schemes are available (see buttons right top corner).
see also smartmoney map & google newsmap & color project.

that site was created by karsten schmidt, aka toxi ( http://toxi.co.uk ) - karsten is heavily involved in the processing scene ( http://processing.org/ ) and is a bit of a legend for creating impressive code.
visually impressive but completely unusable. This sort of experimentation belongs in the back room, or even in an art installation, not as part of a company's corporate site..
lateral are also the people behind the Odeon's (still) completely inaccessible website http://www.odeon.co.uk
Is this blog about Information Visualization or about Accessibility? :P
