This is a guest post by Kapil, if you like to guest post for Devils’ workshop, do check out our revenue sharing program.

Yesterday while visiting hindustantimes.com for the news I came across a very interesting and new type of Gallery which is “cooliris”. As a web developer I had used many types of jquery gallery for album viewing web pages but this type of gallery I find the most interesting one with many features of displaying news, Games and videos in three dimension(3-D)that you may have never seen till now. The Gallery can also display the locally placed album. The website for cooliris is providing very interesting features of searching based on different – 2 categories like Entertainment, Music, News, Games etc. that I will be explaining.

First of all to experience this gallery one would need to install the cooliris plug-in by clicking here. By clicking free download. It starts installing with steps on the right side to compete installation of cooliris gallery. Once you are finished installing cooliris you can start using it after restarting your browser.

The first page you will see the home page of gallery viewing. In this you will see different -2 categories

I was amazed when it launched first but when I started using it crashes all time. So I don’t use it anymore and many have the same issue
