Their js is not uglified. Here's the easteregg. function initEasterEgg() { var pattern = "72658669656682696575"; //haveabreak var userPattern = ""; var code = "38384040373937396665"; var userCode = ""; $(document).keydown(function(event) { var p = pattern.substr(userPattern.length,2); var c = code.substr(userCode.length,2); var r = Math.floor((Math.random()*3)+1); if(event.which == p) { userPattern += event.which; if…
Great parody. I suppose this is a relevant article to attach this question. What is the general consensus on using the scroll event to trigger animations/content changes? I am working on an article that uses animations to help explain scientific processes and triggering these with the scroll position seems to offer many advantages over having the user keep clicking a next button. I know where they are on the page and…
Does it get much hate, though? Snowfall and The Jockey, the NYT pieces, use scroll to trigger pretty much everything, and they received tons of attention both here and in more mainstream media outlets.
I was laughing at this parody. Then, I found myself wanting a KitKat. Perhaps there's something to this presentation style after all!
It is fascinating to look at the execution of the Google page vs the Nestle page. Seems like a near perfect real world example of "HOW TO" and "HOW NOT TO" accomplish modern web design.
This honestly makes me wonder: what is the point of web sites for stuff like KitKat? Clearly, they can replace the entire thing for the purposes of a joke so it can't be that high up there. Who visits those sites? What do they do on them? The Nestle/Hersheys site, sure. Standard corporate stuff. But a site specifically for KitKat? EDIT: there seems to be some confusion in the replies. I am not talking about this joke…
Presumably the same people who like KitKat on Facebook. Utterly pointless, but people do it.
A brand website doesn't quite have the same appeal of social proof. It takes a greater interest in a brand to visit its website than it takes to open a logo in a friend's FB profile.

I'm only a little ashamed to admit, I bought a KitKat today.
Did you run your finger along the tinfoil to cut it perfectly in half? That is a staple of every Britons childhood.
Wow this really is small print isn't it? Look how tiny it is. How are you even reading this? Come to think of it, why are you even reading this?? This is no way to spend your break! You've just read all of that stuff about how awesome the KITKAT 4.4 is and you still haven't run out and got one? Wow, tough crowd. As soon as I finish writing this I'm gonna get one from my secret stash and go drink milk through it like a straw. I have to keep my stash secret because my grandmother looks at me all puppy eyed if I don't share it with her. Is it still puppy eyed if it's your gran? I suppose it would be gran eyed? Or granny eyed? Let's go with granny eyed. I feel like we've just coined a new phrase. Where's the 'trademark' symbol on this keyboard? Ah here it is ™. GrannyEyed™. I wonder if that's legally binding? Hey, let's see if we can get it trending! #GrannyEyed. Tweeted. The Internet has it now. It's out of our hands. I feel like we've just started something epic. Ok, well this was a lovely chat. I'm gonna go and grab that KITKAT now. Fancy a break?
Love the easter egg - try "haveabreak" or "up up down down left right left right b a" :)

Nothing says "solid, responsive, enterprise-grade, consumer-pleasing data access" like candy. (Yes, I know this complaint is old, and dessert/snack is the Android naming theme. Nobody is buying in because of the meme; a lot of people are opting out because of it.)
Could be way off, but I find the idea that people are opting out of Android due to dessert names very unlikely. Seems roughly equivalent to OS X (recently retired) cat names and I don't remember people staying away from Mac cause snow leopards don't convey the advantages of owning a Mac. Especially since I'd bet a vanishingly small amount of people who own Androids know the thing that runs their phone even has a code…
