Cesium, the new Google Earth plugin?

This is an example of a very slick webGL application for building 3d Earth visualizations - Doarama™ is a 3D visualization engine for geolocated activities. The service allows you to upload GPS track logs (from a smartphone or sports GPS tracker) of activities you have participated in. These tracks are then visualized on a 3D map directly within a web browser using familiar controls and intuitive navigation. 
This is built using Cesium.  Cesium is a JavaScript library for creating 3D globes and 2D maps in a web browser without a plugin. It uses WebGL for hardware-accelerated graphics, and is cross-platform, cross-browser, and tuned for dynamic-data visualization. Cesium is open source under the Apache 2.0 license. It is free for commercial and non-commercial use.
Here we have a GPX track from sailing on the Saline Solution.
