Exploring this took me back to the days of playing the Dizzy series of games, wondering what was beyond the next screen.

I wrote some JS to add keyboard controls to the map, because clicking and dragging is for suckers. http://www.potch.me/blog/press-and-hold.html

I've integrated this into a full-screen view: http://ares.aylett.co.uk/xkcd/

I have made a very low-res polar coordinates version: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/543600/1110polar.png

I will make a larger version later tonight.

my hacky way of killing Randall's server: curl --limit-rate 40K -O http://imgs.xkcd.com/clickdrag/\[0-100\]\{n,s\}\[0-100\]\{e,w\}.png Then to remove all the 404s: find . -type f -size 345c -exec rm -f {} \; Woo! No code.

Use "curl -f" and it won't save the 404 output
