Laugh I love it but don't do

 

10 print "hello world"

20 goto 10

 

If you do you will lock up your web browser but the code does work snicker.

Thought the nature of this would appeal to some command line fanatics. 
------------------------------

Long before Sir Tim Berners-Lee invented HTML and the Web, connecting from
one computer to another over the internet or otherdial-up network was
strictly a command-line affair. 

Telehack (www.telehack.com <http://www.telehack.com/> ) is an online
simulation of that era.  Connect to the system via the web, or telnet to
telehack.com if you prefer, and you'll find yourself at a command prompt
from which you can do many things. There's a built-in BASIC interprter, for
example, and dozens of other simulated systems that you can connect to and
explore.

It's the ultimate in adventure games, for those that remember text-based
adventure games and who don't like the endless wizards and killings that
dominate the online games market today.

It's a stunning piece of work, and it's totally free to access.  Just don't
get hooked.
