Navigation Architecture - V

In case of flat hierarchies, or in case of functions to be executed, the usage of a bar or a dock with a wave or Genie effect similar to the Mac Dock would be very appropriate. In such event, websites will start behaving like desktop applications, and vice versa, combining the best practices of both worlds.
A thumbnail appears upon hovering over an icon in the dock similar to what currently Windows 7 offers in its “Status Bar”.
Such feature offer users the capability of visually browsing a website, which is a very effective way of navigating without ever resorting to any click or any refreshing of a webpage.
A bar or a dock with a wave or a Genie effect when hovering over icons offers a very pleasant user experience that users are familiar with on their desktops such as the Mac Dock. No reason why such rich user experience should not be made available on the web.
