This is a very simple simulation but clearly shows the connection between different types of simple harmonic motion. Good short explanation.

Good at showing the relationship between circular motion and that of a spring.
Nice explanation section.

Technical Remarks:

Don't press play - it runs very fast. Instead press forward or backward.

One of the better demonstrations of circular motion.
