Smooth 3D feature on Google Maps

 Google MAP is offering a smooth 3D hardware accelerated version using WebGL.

WebGL (Web Graphics Library) is a JavaScript API for rendering interactive 3D graphics within any compatible web browser without the use of plug-ins. WebGL programs consist of control code written in JavaScript and shader code that is executed on a computer's Graphics Processing Unit (GPU)

To test Google Map with WebGL enabled go to http://maps.google.com/gl
