I just stumbled across the SIMILE project form the famous MIT and, as the screen cast above proves, they have some hot stuff to play with both online for your website and software extensions for FireFox and Thunderbird. This is almost enough to switch back to Thunderbird from the tired old, doggy Mail (Mac)!

I have got to get the lyrics!
I find they work well if the rest of the sites design is minimal. Heres a list of wallpaper sites I like:
- The Pixel Patterns collection. User submitted patters. Bit hit and miss but more on the hit site.
- The Inspiration Gallery Wallpaper Patterns is quite an educational site on the origins of early, real wallpapers. Includes the famous Damask Wallpaper Patterns collection.
Well, thats about it so far. If you know any more, leave a comment.
OpenLaszlo is mind blowing! If you don’t believe me check their demo Flash Flickr browser AND THEN check their identical DHTML Flickr browser compiled from the same code or XML as it were.
As if that wasn’t impressive enough, the concept of zero-install, or no-install, stand alone web applications (I prefer widgets) is quite a unique idea and makes it Oh-so-easy to integrate into whatever you need it for like a blog, community portal, forum, static HTML page etc.
The final clincher for me is that its Open Source. Flapping their floppies at the big boys, YEAH! We (I) here at TMI like it and award it the ‘Sh!tHot!‘ stamp of approval, look for it all good websites.
And while we’re on the Dojo subject, why not draw a picture AND THEN playback the creation process in real time! This ones just Hot!
