Run This! — "Add a button to let your readers run snippets of code directly from your blog and see the results interactively.[...]". Pretty neat web application. It runs code snippets pretty fast and it's very easy to use (A WordPress plugin is available). Be sure to check out the examples on the page. It surely would be cool (and useful, too) if snippet hosting sites (like http://gist.github.com) would use this service to run the snippets. I actually didn't install the plugin yet, but I can imagine that WordPress users who have already installed the Dean's Code Highlighter plugin will have some issues with using the Run This! plugin, since both use the <pre lang="...-construct for pasting snippets.
