Edd, an easy to use spoke length calculator for bicycle wheel builders

This tool is useful if you want to build your own bicycle wheel (who doesn’t?!). It is written almost entirely in JavaScript with a small server-side component in Python.

Overdrive delicious.com

A web application that makes use of the brand new implementation of the HTML5-offline storage specification in Apple’s Safari browser. It keeps a local cache of your delicious bookmarks which are, thanks to a SQL database embedded into the client-side, extremely fast to search. Although there is nothing Safari-specific in this application, Safari is the only browser that is currently supporting the standard.

Edit: Actually, Safari 5 seems to have removed this feature, too. I think that was because the HTML5 spec is too much in flux with regards to local storgage. Mozilla has submitted a competing proposal which isn’t based on SQL but rather on a key-value store and nobody seems to know what the standard will diverge on.
