Websockets are a lot of fun - maybe something like collaborative paint or some kind of multiuser game?

On a side note, anyone know of projects using nodejs in production?

GitHub use it for their download server - try running wget against one of the URLs they provide for downloading a tarball, you'll see it redirect to nodeload.github.com, hang for a few seconds (while they generate the file) and then redirect you to the download location.

http://transloadit.com/ are the most interesting Node.js startup I've seen.

I'm currently making a multiplayer shooter game for node knockout!

It's not currently very impressive, but I hope it will be in about 21 hours :) I might submit to HN depending on how well it turns out.

Submit it either way :)
