Brilliant -- I love source code easter eggs One of my favorites is on Vimeo - if you crack open the JS console, it pitches you on applying for front in dev work with them.
Same thing on soundcloud.

#33I don't see anything interesting.

#34it adds 11.5k to the page (20% overhead) for an easter egg seems a bit excessive. it would be 10x smaller and more interesting to embed a js1k game or demo in the source.
gzip makes it quite a bit less than 20%

Hah! That's pretty brilliant. Nicely done, Vimeo. OK, who else has awesome source-code easter eggs?
Even the President is in on it:

On a related note, I know the candidates have nothing to do with this, but I'm extremely impressed with Barack Obama's web presence. I was also very impressed with Mitt Romney's web presence during the election.

#40I assume the giant comment is what we're supposed to see, but I'm not sure how that's supposed to have any impact on SEO at all. Seems more like a tribute than a SEO hack.
You obviously know nothing about SEO. Having a Giant face in a comment of your page increases clicks, on average, by 147%. Give or take.
