Zurb Responsive Tables
Tables have always been the bane of developers' existence. That fact was further solidified with the advent of mobile web browsing. The team at Zurb hopes to ease developers' pain with responsive tables. Their tables allow the first column to stay in position while the subsequent columns can be scrolled through with a swipe, thus saving the user from having to remember what each row represents.

Google Chrome Frame
Google Chrome Frame is a plug-in that brings Google Chrome's open web technologies and speedy JavaScript engine to Internet Explorer. Users with Google Chrome Frame can now make use of HTML5 elements, like canvas, that aren't yet supported in IE 6, 7, 8, or 9. If you are one of the unfortunate souls still using IE, this plug-in might make the experience more bearable.
spreecast
spreecast is live video conversation tool. Users simply need an account, an up-to-date browser, and a webcam, and they're in. Whether users are interested in creating video chat sessions, video interviews, or topic discussions, spreecast can do it. The experience is similar to Google hangouts, but for those who still aren't sold on Google's social network, spreecast is an alternative.
