Transform - Another Great CSS3 Tool

The January 2011 / Practical Web Design magazine has a  great ten part section outlining many of the useful new capabilities of CSS3 declarations. Among the declarations that I found particularly interesting, especially when viewing a site that the article provided as an example of it's use, is the "transform" property. 

The sunrays actually rotate around the sun using this transform: rotate; in the declaration. There are also moving clouds as well as motion in the form of a quicktime movie playing on the iPhone. The design is super clean and very simple looking, but employs some pretty neat new technology to really get the "Wow!".
