Nowadays, the very little time I have for personal projects is spent doing things like fixing little things and adding little features to BartleBlog [1]_ and thinking how I could use GLE_ and `mako templates`_ to create a cool nerdy tool to create charts.

However, I will be having  a little time for personal projects in a couple of weeks, and having stumbled onto chipmunk_ today really got me thinking.

It's a seriously nifty 2D physics library. Consider this demo video:

.. raw:: HTML

  <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/b6HvIDt1VSU&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/b6HvIDt1VSU&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

Now, what could possibly be done with it... I need to really think.
