Hi,
This is hitting the news in the US about the efforts at the Smithsonian to digitize the collection as 3D virtual objects. http://news.yahoo.com/smithsonian-museum-launches-3-d-exhibit-193941513.html
A good example is the whale fossil: http://3d.si.edu/explorer?modelid=386
The British Geological Survey is doing something similar too: http://www.bgs.ac.uk/collections/jiscGB3DTypeFossils.html
I work mostly with geological landforms from the scale of say, a dinosaur track up to cliff-faces (<100 m scale). The pdf is OK but the Smithsonian interface is great. Is there an output (other than pdf) that can be rendered that could in turn be easily incorporated into a browser-friendly format?
Cheers!

use the SKETCHFAB or somilar HTML and WebGl sites.... they can process a bigger files, but going wih very huge files is always problem....

Thanks! That is a great start.

Note that the new 1.0.0 version has File > Upload model... with presets for Sketchfab and Verold *and looks like it could be extended to others, too).
But I agree, an easy-to-use youtube-like platform for sharing/viewing/commenting on 3D models would be nice. I believe there are already attempts for such things, not sure what their status is and what they do with multi-million polygon models.
Here's what a quick search gave me:

maddin,
Thanks for the other suggestions.
Did this over at sketchfab...

have a demo website that is internal with the image embedded. pretty much what I was looking for.
I think I like the look (and full rotation) that one can get with p3p.in
Eventually, the folks I work with that control the website will need to do their own devo to host images.
