3d city website. Morden technologies - browser

Any ideas how to create 3d graphics in a web browser.
I want to create a simle 3d model of my city.
I know about google earth but I want my own website.
Thanks in advance

You can use O3D or Flash 10. Both require your users to install an add-on.

You could write a Java applet using Java3D (one possibility). See http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/java3d/. You'd pretty much be starting from scratch though. If there's any way that the Google Earth could meet your needs, that would probably be your best bet.

How to implement mobile data loss prevention (DLP) tools? I have googled but unable to gather the information. Anybody has documentation or life-cycle, flow of Mobile DLP?
Thanks in advance.
If I understand your question right you are looking for a tool that will give you information about Data leakage goes out from your mobile device through apps like Dropbox,google,Trello etc .., We released yesterday a project called SecuriGo to give viability about application of data in more than 100 apps, take a look at www.securigo.com

Disguising the use of Game Center

We are developing a multiuser app that is not really a game. We want to use the GameKit framework to use the matchmaking and GKVoiceChat. But we want to avoid the Game Center login (my understanding is that this is not possible) and especially the welcome banners. Or at least to change them. Is there any way to suppress or change the banners? And are there any alternatives?
I am actually very new to this. But while I was researching online for the same reason, I found both this question and one tutorial. This tutorial is seems to be old and it is for iOS5. But hopefully GameKit still functions the same way.
It is a game that uses GameKit for communication but did not use Game Center:

Above is the link for the first part where he explained that he uses Game Kit but not Game Center. You can find the entire tutorial by search the keyword Bluetooth in this page:

Web Conference without client

What technologies are available to accomplish audio streaming between browsers without the need for additional software?
I have tried Lync Server which doesn't support audio/video, WebRTC which is not supposed by IE and now I am trying Silverlight but it's not really well at all.
Anyone else know of any other ways?
Thanks a lot!
You can read here for starter: How to embed a web conference room into web application?
There are providers out there that will sort this out for you but if you want open source/free it is likely to be based on WebRTC.
You can also use Flash if you want browser coverage but providing code for that is beyond the scope of stackoverflow however Google can help you find a proper solution (you will most likely need a server like Wowza)

Creating Simple Web Apps?

I'm currently running a website that I would like to make more unique by adding some sort of web application. It might be as simple as interactive layers used to do a "Create Your Own ..." sort of thing, or it might be more complicated, like a minor game.
Basically, I'm rather inexperienced with coding, and would need a working framework with instructions for making a basic application like this work.
If you have an idea for something like this, I'd love to know. Otherwise, you might be able to direct me to a website that could show me how to create such an application.
Thanks!
if you want to add some games to your site without coding, search for some opensource webgames and use it. what you need is a search engine, :) Stack Overflow is a programming Q & A site.

how to implement a web site like youtube?

I'm doing a language web site for my university language center, where students login and see videos to learn English. i have to do it like this,
person is logging in to the system, search using a search area and find the details,lessons and videos relevant to that videos. this functionality exactly matches the youtube scenario.
for implementing twitter like functionality we can use status-net, is there a similer library, statusnet like famous implementation for youtube or a some kind of platform or a framework like codeigniter that we can use to implement youtube like site very easily??
please suggest some options?? a open source one or a commercial one ???
and what is the best video format to use in a such web site?? flv?? mp4?? or mov???
regards,

Your best option is to use a 'cloud' based video processing service. Most have a sample project / library for many different languages and frameworks. Here is a list of a few I've tried and liked:
http://zencoder.com/
http://transloadit.com/
http://pandastream.com/
The typical steps involve uploading the video files to a large 'cloud' static asset host (such as S3) through the browser. If you are inexperienced it is best to select a processor that provides an uploader (it will handle putting the files in the right spot). Of the three, Transloadit and Panda both have custom unloaders.
Usually the service will allow you to either pass the encoding settings (what formats and qualities to) output to as parameters or configure them in your account. To support all current HTML5 browsers you just need H264 (.m4a) and OGG (.ogv). However, the new trend in the video world is for WEBM (.webm) so you might want to include it as well.
Next you will receive a unique code from the web service that you must store in persistent storage (database). The web service can be configured to 'callback' (perform an HTTP POST or GET request to your service) once the video is encoded.
Once your recieve a callback you can activate your video and start dislpaying it on your pages. For displaying, if you are inexperienced I'd highly recommend you use one of the following players:
http://sublimevideo.net/
http://longtailvideo.com/
http://videojs.com/
They all do similar things for different prices. My current personal favourite is Sublime Video (it offers cool light box effects and a gorgeous player).
Why do you have to re-implement Youtube when you can just use it for hosting your videos for free? Many online e-learning portals (e.g. Khan academy) do exactly that.
As far as the best video format to use -- go read about H.264/AVC. It's what Youtube currently uses.
I think you will not find already built solution ;)
But it's not really that hard. You can use existing frameworks that will make your life easier while you build account management system, the rest shouldn't be really that hard (assuming you don't really want to re-build the whole Youtube ;D ).
For playing videos, you can use JW Player. A great piece of software, you should check it out.
