3D effects probably won't be used too much in practical cases, but Snow Stack demonstrates much more than 3D effects. I think we're slowly going to see web pages transition from static, boxy pages into fluid applications that respect the principles of animation [1]. We've already seen this on the iPhone, where (mostly) appropriate use of animation makes interacting with applications much more pleasurable. CSS transforms open the door to decent animation on the web.
