It is powered by the Ajax.org platform + makes use of HTML5, node.js, socket.io and many other projects. The application has a pretty fast text editor with bundled syntax highlighting support for JS, HTML, CSS and mixed modes. Cloud9 IDE has integrated debuggers for node.js and Google Chromewhich can be started, paused and stopped from the IDE. Using WebDAV, it can connect to remote workspaces too and has a plugin system for improving it further (already has several bundled plugins). P.S. The application is still in early development stages, can be a little buggy but improved continiously.

While creating content for the web, whether it is a blog post or a product for an e-commerce website, we're usually limited with the size of the images. PHP Image Editor is an open source resource (paid for commercial projects) which can easily be integrated with any CMS and enables users to edit images. It can resize, crop or rotate images and apply simple filters on them. The script can be implemented quickly, just show the path of the image to be edited and that's all. Or, if you're using Joomla, there is a module for that. Also, the interface is multilingual and there are already multiple languages waiting ready to be used.
Compatibility: All Major Browsers

Google Chrome Frame is an open source Internet Explorer plugin that enables IE to use the open web technologies and speedy JavaScript engine of Google Chrome. It is actually not so fresh and around for a while, however, the stable version of the plugin is released lately and it is ready-to-use. After that, any user with those IE versions will have a browser with better capabilities like support for HTML5, CSS3, better JS performance and more. Google Chrome Frame is already used by many popular websites including DeviantArt, github or HootSuite. It is definitely not a perfect solution as "a step from end users are required" but at least a step forward and almost doesn't add an extra effort for web designers/developers.The plugin requires 2 steps to work:
Compatibility: IE 6, 7 and 8
