The globe needs to be interactive. The user needs to be able to move the globe around and see the it from different perspectives. It also will need to have points of interest on the globe, when they click on the point, it will show some text and one or two pictures in the box. Not really sure what I can do?

The example i gave you can do that via a dynamic API rss feed. Poly9 can also remove the logo for a small fee.

Here's some research from my project.
