Nuclear's WebGL hacks

I've been having fun with WebGL lately, here are my experiments in reverse-chronological order. You need a WebGL-capable browser such as Firefox 4.0, Chrome 10, etc.

Note for windows users: you might encounter problems with the default settings and need to enable native OpenGL rendering:

• firefox: go to about:config and set webgl.prefer-native-gl to true.
• chrome: run chrome with the --use-gl=desktop command-line argument.
