That's getting nice right there -- slick CSS implementation and a sweet design.
Having authored a jQuery Radial Menu plugin[1], I'll add that I have seen significant interest in the interface/plugin from a ton of folks over the years, but few real world implementations that have engaged me beyond first glance.
Personally I find the interface best utilized in situations where I'd rather not divert my attention and am performing similar tasks frequently - like in some games. When it comes to getting _creative_ with the UI component as a developer, though, I've found it tough to do _really_ well. It gets gimmick-y quickly. Path's QuadCurveMenu has been the best implementation of any type of circular menu that I've seen. Summly had a radial menu as well, but I didn't find it particularly useful - just fun to play with.

For anyone interested, here are some examples using the radmenu plugin: http://tikku.com/jquery-radmenu-plugin#radmenu_tutorial_4. Also, my site opens up with a radial menu: http://www.tikku.com.
Would love to hear thoughts from any other folks that have actually experimented with the radial menu interface?
