I recently emailed Stewart Smith of Stewdio(http://stewdio.org/) who I was inspired by for his piece Pong, which uses popup windows as the actual game pieces. I was inspired to use it for a weekly assignment for university called 'Show us something' which you can view here: http://www.amythornley.co.uk/showussomething/index.html
He very kindly got back to me and recommended some websites I should look at. All of these were design companies or more specifically individuals who are creating design or art largely involved with programming or coding. One of the websites he linked me to was the website of Rafael Rozendall who is an artist who creates websites as pieces of artwork. His work is inspirational and definately worth a look at.
A few of my favourites:
Colourflip is a simple little flash piece where you pull away the colours. Lovely.
Big Long Now is a piece where you simply open a door one one side, and close it to the other. In short a never ending door. What makes this so great is the way you can pull a number of doors and they'll stay then the speed at which you pull your mouse with the next one, boom you can slam them all. The little details are what makes this piece so great.
Finally Cold Void is another fantastic piece, maybe my favourite. It's a bit like a spider web you can break apart, it moves really fluidly and is very intuitive.

Very inspired by his stuff, has made me think more about what I may want to do for future self initiated briefs and made me look at learning some new web languages such as processing(http://processing.org/)
