Alter all websites in the world

The following is a nice trick that I learned in a webmaster forum. I thought it would be nice to describe it to my readers as well because you can have some fun with it. It allows you to manipulate all elements of a website. You could for instance create number one positions on Google, add your own products to Amazon or write a cover story at CNN.

The changes are only temporary but you could make a screenshot and send them to your friends to have some fun with them. This is also a reminder that everything that is shown on screenshots can be easily faked. This is especially true for website revenue screenshots for instance.

All you need to do is load a website and load the following code in the address bar:

javascript:document.body.contentEditable='true'; document.designMode='on'; void 0

Make sure you paste everything in one line and hit enter afterwards. Once that is done you can easily edit elements on the website. I created a short video that shows how I edited the Microsoft homepage.
