It is sad how little the world wide web has advanced over the past 15 years. With all the complaints about not being able to zoom, I was wondering why you weren't using VRML.

Whoah, this is awesome! Who's got the big ass node in the middle of the US?

can you get it to zoom down on my desktop?
Can you scrape Google Maps satelite photos and adjust the detail level automaticly with zoom?
I like! Pretty sure I see my indicator 
This Webgl globe has realtime data, so at least that part of it is possible:

As for getting the location of senders/receivers, Dan Kaminsky created a tool, blitcoin, that can find the IP address of transaction senders/recipients, but this is a privacy concern and solutions are being sought to prevent this from being possible.

OMG it's hypnotizing... I've been staring at it for 20 mins.
Does anyone know - when transactions occur, is the node from which they originate known? Basically, would there be a way to visualize when a coin is "sent" from one location on the globe to another?

Yep. I just made this as a flashier version that I can show after my talk as a little gimmick.
do both display the same data basically?

oh, thats insanely funny -)
Loads almost instantly for me. Chrome 11.0.696.68, Ubuntu 11.04. Scroll wheels work. Really cool project.
Okay, don't know then... I left the page open for 15 minutes and it's a really nice looking page, but no globe
Chrome 11.0.696.68, Windows Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.101209-1647 : Service Pack 3)
Edit: Nevermind, I forgot I didn't have Direct X installed since I re-installed Windows recently... downloading it now
really nice work!

Loads near instantly for me.
Only loads in FF4 and Chrome 11.
IE9 and Opera 11.11 aren't displaying it for me. Not sure how much HTML5 support they have though :-/
I'm just a FF whore (mainly due to the addons I've become accustom to.)

Doesn't work for me in Chrome 11. (Globe doesn't show up at all).
Shows for me on Chrome 11.0.696.68
Also, the scroll wheel does zoom in Chrome... doesn't seem to work in Firefox 4, though it could be due to an addon.
That's exactly the version of Chrome I have.
Most of the page loads, just not the globe... how long should it take?
