1. The glossary starting with "A" terms in view.
2. Jumping down to the "H" terms using the A-Z links. The H is focussed using the fish eye lens. Letters are enlarged on hover.
3. Viewing a sub-section of the glossary, which is categorized by issue.
Screencast of This Interface
Paper manufacturer NewPage provides the Ed Lives Here site, a useful resource with information about paper, printing, and design. One of the features of this site is a glossary of printing terms. The glossary provides categorized sub-glossaries, as well as the typical a-z index of terms, and a search input. Browsing through the glossary is facilitated by the A-Z links, which use a fish eye lens to bring focus to a section of the list.
Thanks to Matthew at PatternTap for the tip.

I developed this site and thought you'd be interested to know that the glossary and most of the other interactive features were accomplished using the jQuery javascript library.
Thanks for the write up!
