A nascent technology called WebGL for bringing hardware-accelerated 3D graphics to the Web is getting a lot closer to reality.
Last week, programmers began building WebGL into
Firefox's nightly builds, the developer versions used to test the latest updates to the open-source browser. Also this month, programmers began building WebGL into WebKit, the project that's used in both Apple's
Safari and Google's Chrome.
Wolfire Games picked up on the WebKit move and offered a video of WebGL in action.
