Integrated development environments (IDEs) have been around for a while, but browser based IDEs has the promise of making them a lot more widely accessible. "These are websites where you can edit code, run your application, and sometimes even instantly share your application for others to try. This is much more convenient than the typical process of downloading and installing a huge IDE such as Eclipse or Netbeans, and then compiling and packaging and distributing/hosting an application on your own." Yes, they're not full-fledged systems like the desktop equivalents, but they may well be working their way to primetime. Doug Holton links to a bunch here (including, interestingly, Yahoo Pipes, which only sort of qualifies).
