Papervision3d is making it pretty easy for people to roll their own spinny globes. But somehow the flash community seems more interested in trying to monetize their little projects instead of contributing to something bigger. What we're really trying to do here is encourage people to contribute to a foundation and take their rewards from the larger market that would ensue. The real question is how to build community and outreach so that there is a contributor resource pool? Our approach is to provide a simple 3d visualization platform for a 3d globe that others can build on.
