The idea behind this interface is, that there is no 'relevant' content. People browse sites like this for entertainment, same applies for Flickr and YouTube. The purpose of the interface is to elicit a mouse click and to pleasantly surprise people. The associative links bring users more of the same, steering them in a certain direction.
Like with http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/ there is no task to be completed. People start without a clear goal, and the interface might help them to find something they really like. - Yohan. ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
