Yourminis is the latest entry to the web-based widget desktop space currently lead by Netvibes, Pageflakes, and Protopage. Unlike its competitors which are all AJAX-based, yourminis is built on Flash and this has its own share of advantages all together. There are four kind of widgets you can add to your page in yourminis: minis — which are mashups of the most prominent Web 2.0 products and handy tools like calculators and calendars — podcasts, vidcasts, and blogs.
UPD: Check this video from Alex Bard for more info about power of yourminis. They have browser extentions, and after installing you will have youminis desktop at ANY time over page you looking now without going to youminis.com site. Amazing! I really love this idea.

The reactable, is a state-of-the-art multi-user electro-acoustic music instrument with a tabletop tangible user interface. Several simultaneous performers share complete control over the instrument by moving physical artefacts on the table surface and constructing different audio topologies in a kind of tangible modular synthesizer or graspable flow-controlled programming language.
Just check videos, this is really awesome. And most amazing part, it open-source (flash sources included)

Adobe and Mozilla announced that Adobe will contribute source code from the latest Adobe® ActionScript™ Virtual Machine (AVM2), the standards-based scripting language engine in Adobe Flash® Player 9, to a new open source project known as Tamarin that will be hosted by the Mozilla Foundation.
UPD: I change the headline, it was little wrong. Adobe open source for AVM2 only. More info here. Thanx to Tinic Uro.
