Not about Web3D but an elaborate analysis of 3D for movies and why it will never work. I doubt the conclusion, but very interesting reading. Roger Ebert's Journal.
Virtual Worlds, web 3D, “Live 3D collaboration” or “Full 3D Virtual Events” represent different angles of vision for the same group of 3D immersive Internet technologies. As 2010 was clearly the year of emergence of 3D for consumers, I would like to discuss the evolution of this part of 3D internet technologies. from Altadyn.
Some time ago I checked the state of WebGL and it looked not too great. This changed dramatically recently, so I dare to say that the next browser generation coming up will change the 3D capabilities of the web this year. From Web3d-blog.

Gives us a sense of the strong potential this virtual space will have for the BE community when we bring young cancer patients in to test it before long.
