There is also Google's Mapplets, not to be confused with Maple Maplets

http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/mapplets/
http://www.adeptscience.co.uk/products/mathsim/maple/primes/maplets.html

Wonder if MapleSoft can bring a lawsuit against google for name
infringement here?
This is one way Maplesoft can make few easy millions of dollars? :)

Notice when searching for "maple maplets", google suggests a name
correction to "mapplets". Very smart.

I do not dare touch a Maple maplet any more, since every time I tried,
all sort of Java errors popup in my browser, many times freezing it or
worst. I never did like Maplets myself. I need to try sage interact
more sometime. But I do like Mathematica Manipulate. It is complicated
and it takes time to learn.
