Al Dean notes that Autodesk is (again) twitching to stream AutoCAD over the Internet [Develop3D]. Making it more feasible may well be WebGL:
If you're not familiar with WebGL, it's the evolution of work that Mozilla started a few years ago with experiments called Canvas 3D -- essentially a way of accessing OpenGL from within the browser, through the HTML5 canvas tag. Earlier this year, [Mozilla] started a standardization effort within the Khronos Group which oversees OpenGL, and have made very rapid progress [vladimir].
