“Groovy Motherfucker”

Decent tower defense game. Sponsored by Microsoft, works fantastically in Chrome, no plugins required.

Fab bookmarklet that lets you blow the shit out of any webpage.

Holy crap, this is a cunning hack! Renders (some) SWFs in browser without the Flash plugin, using Canvas and JavaScript. Works (albeit somewhat slowly) on iPhones and iPads. Gonna be interesting to see if Adobe buy this up.

Presentation built using HTML5 to demo new HTML5 features. Runs best in a recent Google Chrome.

Holy shit! SWFs rendered without a plugin. Obviously, this has limited use at the moment, but there’s some great potential for allowing Flash devs to make animations that run on iPhones’ web browsers.

Play Pong with browser windows. Neat hack.

Olde Amiga-era tough-as-balls platformer, implemented in JavaScript with canvas.

Really in-depth front-end web performance tool. Like the “Net” tab of Firebug, but more so. Windows and IE (!) only.

Top notch JS ninjary from John Resig. All examples are runnable.

Framework for tracking web performance on end-user machines, from Steve Souders, author of “High Performance Web Sites”.

Fell into my lap serendipitously this afternoon, as I was thinking about the very issue of speeding up user-side code.

Mozilla Labs is launching a sort of Greasemonkey++ — in addition to tweaking web pages, you get some limited control over the browser chrome. Will be interesting to watch this grow

Mindblowing JavaScript demo. Send a bouncing ball between browser windows.

Now this is lovely — convert fonts into VML, then seamlessly replace text on webpages. Like sIFR, but without the horrendous hassle of needing to do things with Flash.

Officially the best thing in the entire history of the internet today.

Amazingly clever piece of hackery. Embed fonts seamlessly in your pages in a manner that works with all released major browsers (including iPhone), but degrades gracefully. Need to do some playing with this…

Amazing bit of JavaScript hackery. The demo itself is cute and funny, but make sure to play with the demotool.

Good explanation of the newly publicised “clickjacking” browser exploit. Your clicks may not be going where you think they’re going.

JavaScript growl-like popup messages for webpages.

John Resig has ported the Processing visualization language to JavaScript, using the <canvas> tag. John is officially one of the most scary-smart people I know.
