— WTF? YouTube Snake? – Speed Post — — Tech goodness in under 5 seconds! —

Check this little gem out!

For this to be the most meaningful, you have to know what the game Snake is first. If you have never played any version of Snake, check out this version: http://bit.ly/RaoZJv  That is a very nice version of Snake both graphically and control-wise, but this game comes in all shapes and sizes from simple and crude to very advanced.

Now here is the cool thing. In every YouTube videos there is a very simple and crude version of Snake. Here's how to access it:

1. Start any YouTube video, it doesn't matter which one, so here's one for you: http://bit.ly/RapZgF
2. Once the video starts playing pause it.
3. With the video paused hold down the left arrow key and then tap the up arrow key.
4. The game will start immediately, so be ready to control the snake with the arrow keys so you don't hit the wall.
5. Look carefully for the little dots and eat them.
6. If you hit the wall, repeat step 3 to restart the game.

This is one of the crudest versions of Snake out there, but the fact that it is hidden in every YouTube video makes it cooler than Ranch dressing.

To all the techs out there who are just about to flame me: Yes I do realize that the game is embedded in the player and NOT the videos. It's just more dramatic to describe it as being included in every video. ;)
