Open Source Catholic Challenge: Rosary in HTML5

An idea I've been having in the back of my mind for some time is putting the Rosary (or another devotional) online in such a way as to (a) faithfully instruct individuals on the purpose and beauty in its prayer, and (b) stretch my skills and build a usable, friendly, and prayerful web application.

I envision building a standards-compliant/HTML5 site which leads a Catholic through the recitation of the Holy Rosary, or maybe the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, and works across as many modern browsers as is possible, without Flash, and without any of the 'cheese factor' that I see on many other similar projects...

Would anyone else be interested in collaborating in a project like this? I will probably do a little here, a little there, as I don't have a lot of time on my hands right now :)

Father MD's Kitchen Table

Father Michael Depcik has a vlog called Father MD's Kitchen Table where he provides a weekly homily in American Sign Language. He also provides common prayers, the rosary, the divine mercy chaplet, and information on saints in ASL. Since I'm learning ASL myself, I watch his vlog every week. You do have to know ASL though -- there's a English summary for each entry, but not a translation.
