Yes, that explains how to create 3D images using flash, but it doesn’t describe taking entire websites to the whole next level, and how many new technological advances would be required to make it to that next step.

Not to mention how SE crawlers will index our sites, how people will view and interact with them, etc.

Hi James,
It’s Very Simple to develop a 3D website,
Use 3D images, integrate it with flash and than start coding in it.
The whole website will be in flash, but will looks so attractive.
Regards,
James.

It would be fun if we could “slap” a few websites.

Porn websites would also be an interesting thing to see.

Thanks for the link,
But by the looks of it, it seems like there will only be 2D Pages in a 3D environment, just for organizational purposes.

Concerning VR, I was thinking that they may start out as just 3D projections on your computer, but then the technology may gradually evolve into something like a hologram.

It’s already begun, in a very limited way.

Standards would be a weird ball game. If the mark up is to be strict, like HTML, then the W3C would probably take a decade or longer to produce a working standard. However, if it becomes an interpreted markup with user defined controls, then life would be easier.

I think certain designers would be at a major advantage, for example 3d artists Like you said, the rest can always learn.

If it’s going to be a 3d website, then why not have it as a 3d projection? VR would be so cool with that.
