  1. Easy to forget how cyclical the web's "New Cool Stuff!" is... This is at least the 2nd cycle of live video. Remember Qik and Livestream?

      Surreal to think about the fact streaming live video to the internet was the New Hotness back when I was reporting on Hillary w/it in 2007

                That's was 1999. Before that they tried to make Web VR a few times. Did anyone ever build in VRML? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VRML lol

                  ASUS wanted 3D desktops to be a thing So Badly. They tried again in 2001 dansdata.com/v8200d.htm and again in 2009 pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2356571,00.asp

                        BTW, I totally owned one of those pairs of funky ASUS glasses, got it with dansdata.com/v8200d.htm. I never got it to work. Not once.
