Hi,

It's VRML all over again :-). VRML was going to be *the* thing. Still, it'll be interesting to see if whether more powerful computers with better graphics capabilities than the 90s will make it compelling enough people will actually want to do more with it. All the different plugins didn't help either.

I do think it's funny that people think it's fabulous and new because Google did it, I'm not that old ;-).

Regards,

Jo

You'd have to admit, Jo, working at Google would be one big adventure.  Look what they get to play with...well, VRML.  Okay.  But, it looks fun.   ;D
