Dan Harden: Navigating Virtual Worlds in Cyberspace with VRML | DHTMLConf 2000 | JSFest Oakland 2014

From the W3C spec (http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/VRML/): """VRML allows to create "virtual worlds" networked via the Internet and hyperlinked with the World Wide Web.""" The year is 1995. The place... *cyberspace*. The exciting new technology Virtual Reality Modeling Language, or VRML for short, is poised to change the way we surf the information superhighway forever. Rather than scrolling through a boring old document, web surfers would now have the ability to literally navigate the information superhighway to virtual worlds of their own creation. These worlds mostly consist of spinning cubes. This talk will also touch on the virtual reality file system navigator as seen in Jurassic Park.
