- duqee 14y agoCould be my slow internet connection, but this is slow and laggy for me in chrome.
- Swizec 14y agoSame here. But that happens every time I load a computationally expensive javascript app. I think it's just our slow processors.

- ch0wn 14y agoIt also works just fine in Firefox.
- gouranga 14y agoThat's pretty awesome. There goes my productivity for the next couple of hours :(
- dbbolton 14y agoI spent about an hour building and decided to save using my Google account. Unfortunately, it's broken. You'd think if they supported one platform, it would be Chrome on Windows. Go figure.
- kator 14y agoLOL reminds me of Minecraft http://www.minecraft.net/ http://www.minecraft.net/ I wonder if Lego approved this and/or it's part of an advertising campaign with Lego?
- kator 14y agoFYI you get a pop-up if you try other locations in the world: Remember, you can only explore and build in Australia and New Zealand at the moment.
- confluence 14y agoGreat marketing for Chrome, LEGO and HTML5 all in one go! The launch trailer can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pf2NHdfudyo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pf2NHdfudyo The Sydney Harbour Bridge LEGO build can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQnRIRSvHJg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQnRIRSvHJg (for those who can't run the LEGO builder/explorer in their browser)
- gus_massa 14y agoIn the form to choose the year the list starts with 1892 and finish with 2012. I suppose that most of the people that use this are relatively young (<40?), so I think it would be better to offer the recent years fist. Las month, there was a discussion about haw is the best way to ask about the birth date of a person [1]. I think that one of the more difficult part is that the year list is too long.

- Retric 14y agoIf you really want to speed it up let users enter the year or use separate drop downs for decade and year.
- nickpresta 14y agoDoesn't seem to support Chrome in Linux (21.0.1180.4 dev). I get redirected to the "download Chrome" page when I try to view 3D.
- mopoke 14y agoI had the same until I forced Chrome to allow webGL.
- thewisebunny 14y agoSpent a couple of hours this morining building dream home. Tried to upload but its just hanging (Chrome on OSX). Anyone else found this???
