Someone pointed me toward some really cool apps earlier today. All of them make use of HTML5 and it's Canvas element. The Canvas element is accessible by JavaScript, and is supported by most of the major browsers already, although IE8 is not one of them. Of course, if you use Chrome like I do, you'll have no problems!
The webpage lists 21 Canvas experiments that range from cloth simulations to innovative drawing tools. Although each of the apps offers something to "ooo and ahhh" at, the drawing tools are particularly interesting. The app is called Bomomo, and features many different ways of drawing - all of which involve some set of brushes moving in response to your mouse and various physics.There is far more there than there is space here to write about it, so definitely check out the page that links to all 21 apps! Also, here is a nice little HTML5 gallery showcasing sites that make use of HTML5 in general.
