I am interested, although I don't have a lot of time...just last week, I
downloaded GeoGebra for the very first time, and in maybe 45 minutes of
goofing around and reading documentation on the internet, made this:

(Try double-clicking on the applet to open up a full-fledged GeoGebra
editor!)

GeoGebra has its limitations, but clearly for some things it is
extremely useful, easy to use, and makes it trivial to put up things for
students. So I'll try it out.
