In my opinion 3D Visualisation as we know it today is still very much in its infancy. Even the shift towards animated visualisation has been slow to take off. That said, this will undoubtedly be very popular in the not so distant future with Google's acquisition of YouTube and the importance of video in search engine optimisation.

As the world grows smaller the information travels faster and we are practically "bombed" with a lot of data our brains cannot store. Besides that, a computer can also manipulate data faster than we can, make complicated calculations or guide equipment in performing operations...
