What Hacker News says?
Am I going crazy or haven't I used websites that update the favicon to indicate things like new notifications? Here's a 16x16 pixel game of Defender implemented by animating the favicon: http://www.p01.org/defender_of_the_favicon/

HN discussionThe real version of this, which is actually 1021 bytes, is here: http://www.p01.org/MONOSPACE/monospace.htm . It uses the very clever trick of compressing the JavaScript code as the pixels of a PNG image (which uses Deflate internally), then including the page itself in an <img> tag and decompressing the JS code from the resulting pixels.

HN discussionFor those you are wondering, this is a webserver that serves an HTML page in a single TCP packet. I guess ≤ 1500 bytes to avoid fragmentation - shows as 1.1KB in Chrome's network view.
