    It seems to be only for today as a “joke” but it’s actually working and is so good. They should keep it. I love this!

    I tried it with my glasses and it barely works ! Not perfect in some places but it is a real good deal anyway !

    Too bad they removed it now :(

    Yeah, 3D seems to be gone now :(
    One sugguestion is that it is because it caused a problem with the Zoom of Google Maps API

    I bought some very cheap 3d glasses especially…. it sort-of worked (on a large TV) but often only half the picture had a 3d effect, very strange…. and there were a lot of errors in the rendering of the 3d image… but it was still awesome! C’mon Google bring it back!! :P

    3D is working. You right click and pick 3D mode. Maybe the coloured eyglass head was to make people notice quickly.
