It is also a symptom of trying to get the "hip" Flash and motion design 
crowd to migrate. 3d environments aside, it is also the "look" that 
Joshua Davis (sadly), WWFT, Yugop, VR2L, MIT Media Labs students, and 
countless Japanese designers (Sony R+D etc) popularized in the late 
90s. Not only are they being used in interfaces, but also in mainstream 
motion based advertising. Perhaps as an easy way to sync brands across 
various media.

Also, after struggling with this app and event handling since last 
summer, I have found a great set of video tutorials recently posted on 
Lynda.com for free. They are conducted by Lee Brimelow of Frog and Flex 
development notoriety.  Should have you up and running a senseless 3d 
RSS visualizer/aggregator in no time.
