I can't contribute open source code now for.. some reason. But, here's one of the more impressive JS demos I've seen: http://www.ro.me/tech/.

Also, here's a JavaScript game done in WebGL: http://www.playtankworld.com/

There're a lot of ways to appreciate a programming language, just like there're lots of ways to appreciate different forms of art. JavaScript is a messy yet versatile language these days. It's not as fast as C, but you can do a lot of things with comparatively very little code in a very accessible way.

"Tankworld is programmed in Javascript and does not need any plugin to run, a modern browser is sufficient (preferably Chrome). The game uses a custom 3D engine which only uses the basic canvan rendering functions. The engine does not use WebGL because most people don't have enabled it yet."

So no, it's not WebGL. :)

Ok ... Looks like my marketing approached failed! I'm going to write the slides myself and seek for correction instead of a full community write :)
