Sodaplay
http://www.sodaplay.com/index.htm
A cool site where you can construct models made of masses, springs and muscles. You can put your finished models in the "sodazoo" along with the other masterpieces, like strange pulsing octopi, spinning robot creatures, dogs wagging their tails, and any other bouncing shapes the computer and imagination can muster.
