**💻📰 Running Pong in 240 browser tabs**
Nolen Royalty created a project in February 2025 where they ran a game of Pong across 240 browser tabs arranged in an 8x30 grid. Inspired by a friend's Flappy Bird favicon game, Royalty aimed to improve visibility by using the larger space of browser tabs instead of the tiny favicon area. The Pong game's ball and paddles seamlessly move between the active tab and all the tabs layered above it. The code, described as "awful," is publicly available.
The project successfully demonstrates the possibility of utilizing multiple browser tabs to display a single larger game, overcoming the size limitations of smaller display areas like favicons. The project highlights a creative solution to managing numerous open browser tabs, transforming them from a source of screen clutter into a functional game display.
