I think those Away3D demo's are awesome! Looking at this one - the advertisement on the page blocks me from seeing it:
http://www.geepers.co.uk/jsaway/examples/solarsystem.html Not to always talk about my own stuff but I'll mention one last time that I'm still really keen on getting or joining any good open source spinny globe project to try and deliver a reasonable 3d globe in the browser: http://hook.org/globe_may72008/bin/spinnyglobe.html http://spinnyglobe.googlecode.com Right my version is illegally proxying tiles from Yahoo... and doing so very badly due to limits on my time - I have yet to finish it by myself and I haven't found anybody who can follow even this simple algebra and who is interested :-(. It is using code that I found in the Stamen ModestMaps... But the hope is to later fetch legal properly projected tiles from say onearth or elsewhere; or to reproject them.... There are many many of these globe projects out ( see del.icio.us/tag/spinny+globe ) but none appear to be open source other than the most trivial texture-mapped spheres. It feels like if people would actually collaborate a bit we might end up with a good visualization platform that we could all then do more interesting things on top of... and it feels like free marketing and press if a company were to make this foundation free. I saw several of these for the IPhone as well at Where 2.0 - in particular Denis @ Poly9 has a very nice one. - anselm > I think this finish is better: > > http://www.geepers.co.uk/jsaway/ > > > http://www.geepers.co.uk/jsaway/examples/rescuefromvolcania-medium.html > > In case you don't get it... view source.
