Wolfram Demonstration project

The ease with which Mathematica language allows to express ideas is most impressively seen from the success of the Demonstration project. It features over 2000, and growing, freely available demonstrations. All it takes to explore this right away, is free Mathematica Player.

One cool demonstration I just saw was a demonstration of Einstein's proof of Pythagorean theorem by John Kiehl. The heart of the proof is in quadratic scaling of triangle's area with the linear size the triangle.

It is very easy to become the publisher too. You need ideas, Mathematica 6 and an account.
