Breaking the internet

Go to Amazon (or Flickr or pretty much any website).
Delete everything in the address bar.
Paste this whole line into the address bar:

javascript:R=0; x1=.1; y1=.05; x2=.25; y2=.24; x3=1.6; y3=.24; x4=300; y4=200; x5=300; y5=200; DI=document.images; DIL=DI.length; function A(){for(i=0; i-DIL; i++){DIS=DI[ i ].style; DIS.position='absolute'; DIS.left=Math.sin(R*x1+i*x2+x3)*x4+x5; DIS.top=Math.cos(R*y1+i*y2+y3)*y4+y5}R++}setInterval('A()',5); void(0);

Enjoy.

Now that’s pretty wild. Round dancing logos, that’s what I call ’em.

That was cool. But thank God it doesn’t happen all the time, on every site!
