		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve never been fond of Flash but there&#8217;s no denying that it lets designers do some amazing effects. Where theres a lot of Flash code to load, the better designers usually provide a pre-loader; an animation usually showing a %loaded. That&#8217;s all this site does though they do let you filter by year and provide [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Imagine a flash animation that combined Star Trek with the Flintstones with characters such as Captain James T Kirkstone, First Officer Sprock, Leonard RcKoy- you get the idea. The characters look like the Flintstones in Star Trek uniforms and there&#8217;s a running gag about red shirts who keep getting bumped off. This is an excellent [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recreating the entire 2001 film in Lego would be a massive undertaking and wisely this doesn&#8217;t attempt to do that. Instead in just one minute it gives a potted take of the best scenes, e.g. the ape striking the bone which segues into Discovery (not as nice looking as this Lego Discovery!), then the scene [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Gerhards.net is a German and English website about space and astronomy. Using data from EUMETSAT the site displays monthly cloud animations on Earth. This is fascinating stuff- watching the equatorial winds going from East to West while further north and south they go in the opposite direction. The satellite is geostationary positioned on the equator [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yes it doesn&#8217;t look much but it&#8217;s reasonably smooth animation with collision detection running in JavaScript. Hats off to the Swedish programmer (I guess) Bjoern Lindberg. The controls are simple just g to toggle gravity, h to split blobs and j to join them. You can use cursor keys to move them or drag them [...]]]></description>

This would be well done in Flash but for JavaScript it&#8217;s excellent with what looks like 50 or 60 moving objects on screen (explosions bullets etc) and a parallax scrolling [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is interesting, for a while anyway! It drops a lot of triangles which follow each other round, in a sort of virtual conga, except the head triangle then follows the tail, ie it&#8217;s a loop. However it alters shape over time so you have to watch as tight kinks end up being removed. It&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
