I checked out Apple's Project X.  At first I thought it was a great
concept.  But after several hours using it (just playing), I got extremely
frustrated trying to navigate around the topics.  Some of the topics were
hidden, either behind other topics or on one of the 3-D walls.  It was too
difficult to control the way the topics scrolled off the screen, and there
wasn't a way to scroll up in the hierarchy with the mouse (except choosing
Up a level from the menu).    Eventually, I threw Project X away and went
back to more traditional methods of navigating the web (searches and
hypertext links).

Cheers,
Jed
