Easily one of the top 5 Firefox add-ons (nee, extensions) I've ever used.
Essentially, if you're browsing a Google Images search, or albums on Flickr, or any major image database, PicLens will offer the option to view the images as a 3D wall of pictures that you can drag and zoom a la the iPhone's gallery.
It lacks a few features (Not being able to navigate to an image's source page from the client is the big one, plus you have to open PicLens through an image search instead of being able to do an initial search through the client. However, once the client is open, you can search multiple image archives without returning to your browser), but is quickly being redeveloped.
I can't recommend it highly enough. I love gadgets.

OH! And they just added the ability to search through YouTube videos on the 3D wall. SWEET.
