(I came across it while reading about IPython, which is one of the tools used to make that animated graphic.)

Very cool! Love this kind of stuff, and like that they put Sol in there for comparison.

Thanks for the link

It doesn't seem to do anything in IE or GC. Is everyone else using FireFox?

Just installed FireFox. Still nothing.
