I wonder if anyone can point me to their favorite examples of what I
would call multimedia information objects, but which are sometimes
called learning objects. These are short, discrete little interactive
learning experiences on a narrow topic. 

I've found a few examples but I need more for a project proposal.

Here's an interactive map of some English parks:

Learn about the damage caused by Katrina. Click the tabs and you'll see
that each tab has a different interactive component.

The New York Times is a leader in this field and you can view many of
their efforts at: http://www.nytimes.com/pages/multimedia/index.html  

I also like the Vision 101 presentation at the bottom of this page:

Thanks!
