Mozilla Labs (in partnership with IxDA and Johnny Holland) proposed the Design Challenge'09 with the following topics:

"Reinventing the tabs in the Navigator - How can we create, navigate and manage multiple sites within the same instance of a browser?” 

It is very common among our users, currently have multiple tabs opened in the browser, running programs, Skype, MSN, social networking, e-mails and other applications in the same time. When we need to navigate between the tabs and still remember which position was the last tab that we’re doing searches, becomes a difficult thing to manage. 

After some ideas, sketches and discussions at our meetings for brainstorming, we observed that the Rubik cube shows a non-linear multiple information represented in the squares or colors when ordered.
