myBlank is a single page assisting various frequently occuring tasks. It supports browsing the internet, provides fast access to news sites, and to personal bookmarks. Other ‘portlets’ such as weather forecast, or a group message system can be integrated, too.

A ‘HyperSearch’ provides fast and easy access to different search engines.

The page is customizable, i.e. the user can add new search engines, add and categorize his bookmarks, and set options, e.g. if links are to open in new windows.

3dhtml is a DHTML toolkit that supports the development of 3D applications.

The toolkit makes it easy for DHTML programmers to build their own animated three dimensional graphical applications with models, materials, transformations, modifiers, etc.

It gives developers high-level constructs for creating and manipulating 3D geometry and for constructing the structures used in rendering that geometry. In order to do so, it provides JavaScript libraries, documentation and a bunch of pretty examples.

The object-oriented libraries are written to work in cross-browser environments and offer a simple (but multiplatform and plugin-less) 3D framework using JavaScript.

While working on my diploma thesis my friend René and I extended our contribution (Heart3D) to the 5k competition. What we thought is a rapid weekend fun project ended up in a some weeks long venture.
Happily it became a pretty successfull project:

• Peak of 5000 visitors and 300 downloads daily.
• Mentioned by lots of big design and tech sites. (Surfstation, MetaFilter)
• Nice feedback in the JavaScript community.
• Was reviewed on many major script sites. (HotScripts, SelfHTML)

(The project is sleeping at the moment and wasn’t updated for new browsers for a while)
