BrowserQuest - Web Browser Based MMO

One of my interests is game development.  I have experimented with it as a hobby for years.  I have been a huge fan of the Blitz Research family of products for the last 10 years.  Their latest project is called Monkey.  It is a cross platform tool that allows you to code once and publish to many different platforms.  Some of them are: iOS, Androind, PC, Mac, XNA and HTML5.  HTML 5 is pretty exciting from a gaming perspective because it gives programmers a powerful tool to write web browser based games.  Here is a link on Ars Technica about a browser based MMO that was specifically written to show the power of the platform.

And here is a link to anyone interested in checking out Monkey.  There is a free demo available:
