i always thought url shorteners were for stupid social networking sites and/or for evil companies to track web usage. this is indeed a more usefull and hilarious use for it.

LOL. Now that is true innovation.

BTW too many options. Which one should I click. And while you are at it could you move the cursor and open the relevant page. Kindly stay online - just incase i cant read, you will have to figure out a way to get that utterly incomprehensible stuff into my head....

Steve, could you give some clue on how do you get the screen animated? I checked the page source but could not figure out much. It uses some javascript. Can this process be used to automate a virus in LInux boxes?

Its based on a popular javascript framework named jQuery. Its possible to create awesome javascript driven web apps very easily these days.

The lmgtfy.com page is entirely javascript I believe. The mouse pointer you see in the page is just a image[1] (not your actual mouse pointer). Somebody else mentioned jquery, and by the looks of it yes, that's the case. JQuery is a library built on top of core javascript. So, sorry no way to use this for builing a virus :).

cheers, - steve

PS: I find it a bit weird (disturbing as well as comforting :) ) that lmgtfy.com is not common knowledge on this list. Disturbing because it has been around for quite a while now and comforting because it appears like there wasn't an /absolute/ need to use it till now.
