You do understand that people are literally going to google to watch this animation, play pac-man and whatever else cool that happens on the frontpage? Made it to Hacker News frontpage and people are talking about Google's homepage. Job well done.
- noduerme 15y agoLighten up. People go to google regardless. And people talk about it because it's the first thing everyone sees when they get to work in the morning. All I'm saying is it's not really much of an accomplishment. An animated gif would have been the same size file, for example -- no giant array necessary. I'm just saying it's ironic that a company that's supposed to exemplify elegant systems would end up writing single-use code that basically boils down to a large ANSI graphic you'd see on the front of a WWIV BBS.
