I'm extremely excited about Light Table.
Light Table is a completely new form of IDE, which (among other things) gives you immediate feedback when developing.
Light Table is inspired by Bret Victors absolutely genius talk "Inventing on Principle" - this talk is a MUST WATCH. Skip to 03:30 if you're strapped for time.

Bret's talk was just a concept, an idea, but Light Table is an actual project to bring it into reality. It's headed by Chris Granger, all around cool guy that has been coding since he was 10 years old, and has worked on developing Visual Studio at Microsoft.
But Light Table does not stop at just adding instant feedback to coding. It takes inspiration from Code Bubbles as well:

Whether or not it will actually be possible to create this, or if it will be practical, is impossible to tell up front. I consider Light Table to be a practical experiment to see if it can actually be done, and that is most certainly worthwhile.
