Google Maps brings 3D view using WebGL

Tapping onto MapsGL technology, Google Maps now brings a much smoother 3D experience and let you swoop into street view without the need to install plugin. All you need is a modern browser that supports WebGL e.g. Chrome 14+ and Firefox 8+.

Visit Google Maps at http://maps.google.com and then click on "Want to try something new".


After you have enabled WebGL, zoom in to a location to switch to street view in 3D view.
