I'm especially excited about Zeppelin. Using IPython for SciPy and smaller datasets is great. I would love it for the big data space I work in and Python's tooling to come together more.
I recently looked into notebooks and found Beaker (http://beakernotebook.com) to be especially interesting in its support for passing data across languages.
