For those too lazy to read the whole story, I've included the Cliff notes here.

Short version: We used technology to obliterate the competition in a radio contest where the prize was two tickets to the Stanley Cup Finals in our town, Tampa.

some browsers like to be dominated, thats why its called DHTML: "Domanatrix Hyper Text Markup Language"

two of my buddies have won a gift certificate 2 years in row for 'guessing' the number of visitors to my university's registration system. The funny part is, if you add /admin/ to the url of the site, it shows you the full statistics...
