Destroy my Website

NetDisaster.com is a fun little toy you can use to destroy the website you love to hate.

Here's a link to destroy my website. (using ants)

You can type in whatever website URL you want and choose whatever method of destruction you want (spill coffee, nuke, meteors, flood, ants, etc.) and watch it go.

This reminds me of some old screensavers on the mac.

They even have an FAQ, a wallpapers section, a way for you to put a netdisaster toolbar on your browser, and even add a javascript code to your website so visitors can destroy your site.

The FAQ is actually pretty funny, check out an excerpt:

Does it really destroy websites? If I do attack a site, does it show up when people go on it?
Of course not. When you choose a page to be destroyed by Netdisaster, the actual page is neither altered, nor harmed or even stored by Netdisaster. Only you see a modified version on your side. The only way to make your disaster public is to give its URL (such as http://www.netdisaster.com/ go.php?url=www.site-cible.com&etc...) by e-mail or a link on a site.

I've attacked a few sites, that's pretty cool, but now, how can I have them back to their normal state?!
Imagine that you're wearing rose-tainted glasses. You're looking at the Eiffel Tower through them, and say: "Oh God, the Eiffel Tower is pink! How can I restore its original color?!" Actually, all you have to do is take off your glasses and look at the Eiffel Tower directly, without filter, and realize that the Tower is unchanged. Nobody else noticed any change, but you.

Now, say you've built a replica of the Eiffel Tower, painted it in pink, and set it up at the Place de la Concorde. Passers-by are shocked that the Eiffel Tower has changed its colour. It's just that the actual Eiffel Tower is at the Champ de Mars. The one at the Place de la Concorde is a fake! All they have to do to see an unchanged Eiffel Tower is go to its actual location.

It's pretty much the same with Netdisaster.

If the address (in your browser's address bar) starts with http://www.netdisaster.com? go.php&mode=etc..., then you are not currently browsing the actual site, but its filtered replica. To browse the original target-site, all you have to do is go to its real address, e.g. http://www.yahoo.com. The "original site" button in Netdisaster's option bar is meant for that very purpose.

By the way, think about it: if you'd try to actually change the color (or size) of the actual Eiffel Tower, this would be a tough job, and they wouldn't give you a chance to do it! Well, it's the same with Netdisaster.

It's funny that they had to put up these explinations.

Enjoy
