Hi Tony thanks for sharing this good news.
After looking at the different WebGL demos like http://ro.me , http://cloudpartytime.com and others, to me WebGL looks like an interesting way to go, unless one needs a C.A.V.E. environment, but maybe thats doable in WebGL as well. IMHO the main missing part is an easy to use opensource multiuser collaboration server module with functions to synch the scene and handle avatars, local chat and voice, optional possibility of inworld prim building for adhoc sketching out something . Looks like thats right where Tundra could come in :-) On Fri, Aug 3, 2012 at 6:01 AM, Toni Alatalo <[email protected]> wrote: > Just came across a nice creation oriented overview of the state of WebGL > now that several businesses are up -- the view is CAD related, which > actually resonates interestingly with realXtend related webgl etc. talks, > as simple creation tools have been of interest for many. > > HTML5 & WebGL – one year on > > http://www.nzarchitecture.com/blog/index.php/2012/05/16/html5-webgl-one-year-on/ > > "Investors have given millions of dollars to a number of companies who are > all innovating to become the next major CAD player.
