Markup.io - Cool Tool
Imagine you could draw and annotate directly onto any web page, publish your scribbles and invite anyone to respond... well you can with markup.io
Here's a page I created earlier:
http://markup.io/v/sb8pv5ybyt77
It already feels like a really cool tool. It could be very useful for quickly discussing the design of a web page with a client or member of your team. It could also quite easily be used for mischievous graffiti but I am sure no one will think of that ;)

Storify: Just another social media content aggregator?
Web surfing has always been a great way of ending up in a new place you didn't expect to be in. I started here:
1. Why a JavaScript hater thinks everyone needs to learn JavaScript in the next year
which led me to here:
2. Express
which finally led me to here:
3. Storify
This is a pretty nerdy path, I admit, but I am interested in how programming technologies such as Javascript - that have been around for a while, and have not always been looked so favourably on - now seem to be more central to the development of the web, and HTML5.
Anyway, I ended up at Storify which is a kind of social media story aggregating tool. Why the heck would one need one of those? I am not sure at the moment but it was extremely intuitive to use and I couldn't resist giving it a spin around the block. Here's an embed from my first try out:
