About ten years ago, the author of this paper first proposed a user interface concept in which the display is scrolled radially rather than horizontally or vertically. A central goal of the radially scrolling user interface concept was to allow screen space to be utilized more efficiently, especially in mobile devices with limited displays. Back then, the author wrote a Personal Information Manager (PIM) application for the Palm pocket organizer device to demonstrate the concept. That application was not particularly powerful, given that the Palm pocket organizer had serious memory and processing power limitations. As computing devices have become dramatically more powerful since then, this is a good time to revisit some of the earlier ideas. In this paper we summarize our experiences in porting the radial scrolling algorithm onto the Sun™ Labs Lively Kernel--a flexible web programming environment written entirely in the Java- Script™ language.
