Fractal Rendering
I had some vacation time recently and wanted to explore HTML5/Canvas and fractals, so I wrote a basic JavaScript-based Mandelbrot renderer. The code is available in my GitHub repository, and the demo page is here. It takes about 10-15 seconds to render a single scene. This would be a good application for parallelization, but there's generally only a single thread available to JavaScript within the browser. Perhaps there's an opportunity to add support for HTML5 worker threads here.
