WORLDview is a widget for Macintosh that will allow you to explore the world by choosing a specific location and showing beautiful photos in the country. You can view a Detailed map, Clean Map, and Photos of any country in the world. The photos are picked randomly in a database of around 1500+ photos.

You also have the ability to search for a Country or Capital, view the national flags, coordinates, capitals, and continents along with the photos and maps. Beautiful widget. Have you ever dreamed of going to a certain country or have a vacation waiting to go to? Then put WORLDview on and start seeing the country now. The photos sure look great too!

Just a quick note that Virb, a new social network that’s got me excited, has launched today. I was accepted into the private beta a couple months ago and its really come a long way. It’s beautifully designed, has great iTunes integration, and has got a little bit of everything in there. Perhaps what I like most is how customizable the profiles are. Be sure to check it out!

swfIR is a new Flash replacement technique that replaces and adds visual effects to images on the fly using simple JavaScript. It’s similar to the the popular Flash text replacement technique, sIFR. You can, without physically editing an image, set borders, shadows, alpha transparencies, blurring, rotation and more to any image on your website. Pretty neat! (via Mike Davidson)
