I'll be the next one to parrot the whole "nicely done" atmosphere -- it really is cool. It's amazing what we can do in a browser these days[0] and it's only outpaced by how quickly, it seems, those things become dramatically better. I worked on a project to build a web-based 3D configuration tool for designing custom industrial objects to be 3D printed (aluminum/various metals and some plastics for prototyping). During the two-year span of developing this solution (which went over due to non-3D-in-the-browser-related issues), the various technologies we were working with went from "we really need to do everything except for the final rendering of the (simplified) object on the client" to "it's less code/moving parts to do most of it on the client-side ... and moar textures". I believe the customer did just that a year later. [0] 3D Accelerated and it works in Linux on the desktop ... in Firefox ... brilliantly. It's not that I'm surprised Firefox works -- it's always been fine for me on Windows. It's the combination of Linux and Firefox on nvidia hardware that usually results in odd tearing/performance issues in FF for me. Since recent updates and enabling experimental acceleration, it's buttery smooth.
