Try this while on Facebook: On your keyboard, press UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, B, A, ENTER and then scroll up OR down. You'll see something amazing.

Later on, whenever you click on the page. You see those rings!

How can this happen?



That sequence is called the Konami code, which you can read more about at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konami_Code

If you're interested in seeing other sites that use it, check out http://konamicodesites.com/


Try doing the samething on the google reader. You will get the Ninja !!!


That, my friend, is the Konami code.


ohk!.. the sequence of key strokes is similar.. what significance on FB homepage?


This came out around the time of the Star Trek movie. It's a reference/parody of the absurd lens flares in that movie.
