My friend Anthony just reshared this from a fellow named Paul Irish on Google+ and it's sort of amazing. Basically, it's like a free-form dynamic shell where output can be interacted with, and where a lot of system functionality and applications are first-class citizens. The console understands what databases are, what Ruby (and I think he mentioned Python) is, how JavaScript and its DOM work and how to interact with webpages, even manipulating them.
It's a level of interaction I'd like to have at the console level with my system, and not just be restricted to the menu-driven interfaces that some designer thought I would need. :)
