Of course, nobody else will see the edits you've made unless you take a screenshot and share it with the world. But in completely unrelated news we are particularly proud of the distinction Time Magazine gave us earlier this year, so we thought we'd share that with you.

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place.

FYI If you're a web developer you probably already have the Web Developer Toolbar installed; many don't realize, though, that it already has this functionality, under Miscellaneous->Edit HTML. Can save a lot of time when working on minor changes.
As for spoofing, in order to accomplish that in this way, I think that's pretty far-fetched -- you would already have to have access to the person's computer (or let them use yours to access their bank site), install the plugin, change another page to look like their bank's .... far easier just to look over their shoulder and peek at their account number!
