JavaScript Particle Simulator
I found this really entrancing JavaScript particle simulator from here and decided to publish it to my own Azure Web Site. Check it out, it’s really cool. I don’t know who wrote it but it’s pretty rad. It would make a good default web app package as all the code runs client-side.
