Scenecaster.com - Construct 3D Virtual Spaces

If the real world is up to par with your imagination, if it bores you to tears, create another one. Newcomer SceneCaster lets you construct your very own virtual worlds. While it labels itself as a '3D web community,' SceneCaster isn't so much about Second Life style etherspace socializing, as much as it is about creating 3D spaces that can be shared and displayed on the web. You'll need to install a plugin for IE or Firefox. Building a scene involves dragging objects onto a blank screen. You can import objects from the Google 3D Warehouse. Among the items available for decorating your space, a few can actually be purchased for your real living space from the likes of eBay or Amazon. Sign up for a free account today.

SceneCaster is an interesting app. The commercial tie-ins make it a likely platform for advertising and for marketing campaigns. It could also be used by designers for building mock-ups to show their clients, or for brainstorming.

Are more social features on the way? Is this aimed more at professional designers/creatives? Will they improve on the controls, making them more user-friendly?
