Mark Carolin did most of the development work (if not all) on that site and Blitz (www.blitzagency.com) produced it. I'm sure he'd be willing to talk about how it was created. I'm bcc'ing him on this ;)

Hi! I just saw the new website Ten Year Flash. It really looks nice. But could someone here share what you used for creating the Earth? How would have made the website like this: 1. some rotating video left to right, right to left. you cant rotate top-bottom etc. 2. reusable zoom in, and zoom out animation using the texture from NASA Marble project [1] using a reasonable resolution 3. create serie of pictures that has all major countries, and some times major cities in countries (i.e. east and west coast of north america) 4. creating image that adds the 'fogginess' which will blended with the picture of 2. 5. Some lang/lat projection system or something to show the items on the globe. How would you guys do it? Or more interesting would any of the creators of the site share information? I think I am gonna recreate this.
