In which I am once again beaten to the punch

Another idea of "mine" that someone else thought of before I did. And of course actualized in the empirical realm, cementing their claim to have thought of it first:

My idea didn't involve the Arctic specifically, but the online three dimensional thing has been rattling around in my head for at least a week.
