ACM SIGGRAPH
FOCUS:Web3D RoundUp: Looking Backwards and Forwards
We look our best in version 5
Welcome!
As the web-based little sibling of the Computer Graphics newsletter, we think it's about time the
big sister paid some attention to our medium. Click back and enjoy the many small articles we
present this quarter on computer graphics and the World Wide Web. Timothy Childs and Don Brutzman
have gathered together more than two dozen authors to share their work and views with us, and we have the
usual selection of quaterly columns and comics.
Please read and enjoy!, Gordon.
This online version of the newsletter is the last one mastered by Mike Davison, who is leaving us to go travelling for eight months.
