If I don't see one soon, I may be forced to write my own!

Yahoo Team needs to do a little more testing with WebKit/Safari if they don't want Mac users to yawn and look elsewhere next time... This looks like a very ambitious Ajax app from a UI perspective (although why are the close/max/min widgets on the right-hand side of the window titlebar? just kidding... ), but I may never know if it's not just too ambitious because it causes WebKit nightly and Safari 2.x to crash within moments of loading the page. (I was looking at the deli.cio.us search pipe... or trying to.)

(Although I still don't know what exactly it does :)) - C- on performance. As Rodrigo said, it is pretty slow (FF 2 Mac, 2GB RAM, 2GZ CoreDuo!). - D on browser support. Using a cross-browser toolkit (YUI) and not supporting the most popular browser in use (IE6), is a major negative IMO. I didn't have a chance to test Safari before it went down. - A on design and features – the site really looks great and definitely has the “Wow” effect.

The editor, as you mentioned, was built using the basic yui library - very handy -and the rest is pretty much from scratch. The lines, as Im sure a number of people have noticed, were done using the canvas tag - which has several cross browser issues :-) Maxwell was an internal codename (named after maxwell’s daemon) – looks like we need to cleanup a few outstanding references!
