apparently, you can have html code that displays real time 3d graphics. it looks pretty cool

It didn't work for me. I'll try again later to see if the video works.

That's quite awesome. Good find!

(The vid wasn't playing for me either 'till I hit the play button a few times and kinda jump started it!)

Here's another crazy video that demonstrates some of the OpenCobalt projects power. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_luwx3HdtbQ (Check out some of the related videos too)
I don't think this tech is browser based (well their own browser i guess), but the "worlds" are supposed to be peer2peer online(able)-ish...! I don't understand exactly what they're up to, but it looks darn cool.

The beach one from SmartBoy16's site looked good. But what is it exactly?

basically, you make 3d programs the same way as a webpage, html. it's supposed to be a revolutionary breakthrough for online 3d gaming. lately, google has been trying to improve the internet a lot.
