Open Source Physics Rocks!

This is so cool, great site with tons of physics resources. The coolest part for me is the simulations. They use Java of course but this team has put together a nice tool set for building and bundling simulations. So you can describe a pendulum experiment and then bundle the simulation into a double clickable jar that will play on any platform.
