Search-cube is a search engine powered by Google with a unique way (3D cube interface) of searching. After typing a search topic and clicking search,  it keeps on making thumbnails of pages of top search results. The cube displays around first 9 pages of google search including images, videos.

The user can rotate the cube like a 3D object by pressing arrow keys to flip the cube, Shift + Mouse movements to Rotate & Drag the cube and mouse click to open the desired page. When mouse is pointed on a  thumbnail, it gives a brief introduction about that search result on the right side.

Search-cube requires Javascript enabled and Adobe Flash Player version 9 or higher installed for your web browser. Search results are returned using the Google AJAX Search API & website previews are provided by thumbshots.org. It’s developed by Symmetri.

I would say it’s a nice way to search if you are looking for visual search results with the power of Google.
