WebWatch: Ecomagination

Head out to General Electric’s Smart Grid website and you’ll be amazed on how they created this full flash website. The animation was really awesome, starting from the pre-loader to the whole flash content putting in intricate details of everything.

The best of it all is the integration of a Augmented Reality or digital hologram which is uber cool once you get to actually try it for yourself.
