There’s a ninja in your feedreader

Recently I learned two tricks :

Open Google reader and type : up up down down left right left right b a (source)

A ninja will appear in the side bar:

If you’re on Mac, do CRL ALT COMMAND 8 simultaneously and it inverts the colors :


Finally, If you start doing such things compulsively, before being able to do any work, it simply means you’re neurotic :

“whenever i touch something i say “dot” in my head, and then i have to touch it again and think “erase.” when i do this i end up touching everything twice. the only other way i can touch something is if i touch it three times and think “dot, dot, dot.”

Sometimes I really think computers may have secretly taken control.

    Not really a question… but since I really enjoyed the post, I’ll let this one go… ;-)

    It doesn’t look like it did it to you, but my new item counts all reverted to 30 when the ninja appeared. When I did the code again, all the counts reverted back to their original numbers.

    Hi Justin,
    Indeed, some strange behaviors have been reported using this trick. Maybe the Ninja is alive ?
    Cheers.
