    The article says "That’s where Brandon Jones comes in. He is the one (and only) person at Google working on VR support for Google Chrome." This doesn't seem right, that google only has 1 person working on VR for Chrome. You'd think there would be an entire team working on such an important technology. They should move the Glass Team over to help out.

    Are there any popular (as popular as it could be) building blocks for 3d webpages? It seems like right now I would need to use canvas?

    I feel pretty confident we will see a re-distribution of resources at google towards VR as more commercially-facing devices get released. The Gear VR is the first product and we will see a relatively large number of mobile and thethered devices come out in 2015.
