Google Chrome users, open a new tab and type about:internets and hit enter.And you will see windows screensaver Pipes inside chrome.BTW this doesn’t works in Vista, here is the reason why ??
This is not a canvas element or flash, its actually the windows screensaver.Don’t believe me ? look at the code :
PathService::Get(base::DIR_SYSTEM, &path); file_util::AppendToPath(&path, L"sspipes.scr");
So, now if you can build your own chrome, you know where to make changes so that it displays Matrix screensaver.
Here are some more about pages that you may like to have a look through and can be useful to you too :
- about:memory
- about:stats
- about:network
- about:internets
- about:histograms
- about:dns
- about:cache
- about:crash
- about:plugins
- about:version
There are two more special pages :
- view-cache:[URL]
- view-source:[URL]
For background info about relation between internet and pipes, see this link on wikipedia.
