Mr +Niklas von Hertzen has been doing some very cool experiments lately. (He made html2canvas http://html2canvas.hertzen.com (the thing that basically has a rendering engine written in javascript, yeah, (crazy, right?)))Applying a blur to web content. Demo:http://hertzen.com/experiments/visual-blur/examples/dusky/

He uses html2canvas to rasterize the DOM, blur it, and throws a canvas on top of the page. More: http://hertzen.com/experiments/visual-blur/Sudoku Solver in just CSS:http://www.hertzen.com/experiments/css3sudoku/
The general sibling combinator at work again; it was recently used in some css-only games from Japanese hackers:http://design.kayac.com/topics/2011/06/css-programing.php

Manipulating truetype font data. Load in a ttf, read the data, manipulate the glyphs on the fly, clientside and view the changes.http://hertzen.com/experiments/jsfont/

A happy tree in CSS: http://hertzen.com/experiments/csstree/
I love the markup of the tree branches.
