I saw that on HackerNews a few days (weeks?) ago. It's definitely clever.

Try telnet'ing into towel.blinkenlights.nl

Enjoy!

A picture is worth a thousand words. Post 102 is worth more.

I’m late to the party, but I think this is the best song. Enjoy!

When I paste that command in prompt it gives me 10 Ip's and then "request timed out". But I googled what it does. I'm disappointed that I cannot make it work. Humph.

it should keep going after the request timed out message.

 

Try this:

tracert -w 900 -h 80 216.81.59.173

Nope. More "timed out" messages, and nothing after that. Could it be because I'm behind a router?

The telnet thing was very cool, but the traceroute didn't work for me.  Is it because my isp limited the hops to 30?

Probably, yes.

I thought I was a man but... That's funny.
