Default SketchUp Web Query (Swingman?)

I've been playing with SketchUp7 and am now wondering if
there's a browser widget of some sort that will allow
viewers to use an "orbit" and "zoom" tools to see all
sides of a rendering...

I'm thinking that it'd be neat to include 3D-viewable
models on a web page - and that it'd make for some
fantastic "how-to" pages.

Free and Pro versions ...


That one looks very nice but it needs Sketchup Pro. I'm using
the free version...


Me too, but it sounds as if the Teleporter S/W may be exactly what I was
looking for. Some of the stuff I'd like to embed in web pages is
intended only for perusal and provoking thought - where providing a
complete "live" SketchUp model would short-circuit the learning I want
to encourage.

I've downloaded both the free SketchUp Viewer and the free TelePorter
software, and will play with both.

Thanks for the suggestions and...

A very happy holiday season to all!
