For instance, if we search for images in Google using Cooliris, then they will be displayed in a 3-D format. This means that the images can be dragged across the screen to navigate to the next image, all this with a full screen view. Surprisingly, Cooliris works perfectly fine even on a system with just 256 MB RAM.
