If you haven't seen these yet you should have a look. It looks 3D is making it's way to the web and it's looking amazing.  As a flash developer I have dabbled in 3D for the web in the form of the many frameworks that exist these days, such as Papervision and Away3D, and though both are incredible technologies, they can't compare to a plugin written specifically for this purpose.  From what I have seen the performance and rendering power of these engines is beyond impressive and I believe these will pop up in the form of online gaming.  Also, if that's not enough, it appears that the dominant syntax for web 3D is going to be Javascript which equals easy coding.  Check them out.
