box2dweb – Another Box2dFlash Port for Javascript
This one uses the even newer Box2d 2.1. It, like the previously mentioned port, is extremely short on documentation aside from the standard Box2d docs.
Box2Dflash 2.0 Javascript Port
An (automated) port of Box2dflash 2.0, which is a bit slower than the older (and dead) Box2D 1.4 JS port, but is less complicated to use and has fewer dependencies.
Chrometric – Color-blindness Simulation For Web Developement
This is a useful tool that belongs in every web developer’s utility belt. Color-blindness affects up to 8% of the male population (ladies are safer, only 0.5% are color-blind). Any usability test document that doesn’t test for color-blindness isn’t very good.

Enables some of the most useful CSS3 features for IE6-8, such as border-radius, box-shadow, and linear-gradient. This will save me hours every week.
Fake: “Mac OS X Web Browser Automation and Webapp Testing Made Simple.”
Version 0.2 just launched, and it be impressive:
Inspired by Apple’s Automator application, Fake looks like a combination of Safari and Automator and allows you to run (and re-run) “fake” interactions with the web.
Power Users will love Fake for automating tedious web tasks like filling out lengthy forms and capturing screenshots. Developers can use Fake for graphically configuring automated tests for their webapps, including assertions.
Like Automator and Safari got married and made the most beautiful baby. This is already The Best Thing.

A pretty, usable, interface for managing a “launch list” that is, a list of tasks, tests, and functions that must be run/checked to launch a given project on the web or otherwise.
CSS3 Linear Gradients Tool
An html-based GUI for building CSS3-compatible gradients without images. Like Border-Radius.com, I’m sure this will become a part of my daily routine.

Cfxr, An OSX Port of sfxr
It’s an 8-bit-style sound effects generator, and it’s a heck of a lot of fun. Useful for game mock-ups, too. Maybe even production.

A kick-ass search engine for icons to use in web-based projects, apps, or other graphics. This is great.

Super useful Coda plugin, which uses CSSTidy. Can translate back to human-readable code for changes, then re-compress.
