Really Cool Site

This site is a really good application of Flash (a technology that I am generally not very fond of). It basically has a distance scale along the bottom and when you click on it you see items that are in the range of size. For instance clicking on 10E-5 m shows Mitochondria, a single electron transister, and colibacillus among others. Try it out at:
