I meant TOday...... argh hang on...

But yes. PAC MAN! WAKKAWAKKAWAKKA. You know, after "dada" one of my first words was "BLOOP-BLOOP." I would imitate the sound of my grandma's Atari as she played Ms. Pac Man.

So cool!
I remember when I was 8 and I would be the biggest kiss ass to Ms. Rayito so she'd let me play pac man it in the computer lab, I was one of the best n_n. Oh elementary school, why didn't I love you when I had you?

wow, hadn't realized it was able to do.. then I hit insert coin a few times, and all of a sudden I had Ms Pacman AND Pacman on screen.. I thought it was just another glitch in the game from trying to switch over to Ms Pacman, but no, you can play both at one time! Great for an ADHD mind! :D

It's down now... but you can put it on your own site, OR make a blank HTML page and play it at your leisure..
http://www.rustybrick.com/google-pacman-code.html

it would be fun to make a more full two player game of this, maybe make the 2nd player selectable as CPU controlled or something...

It did get a bit old having the theme blaring on all the confused cafe' patrons' computers every few minutes. Funny for a while, though. :p No one knew what was going on.

"Unfortunately, in the initial release [of the game], [the Pac-Man] sounds started playing automatically -- an oversight or an homage to , I guess," said Socol on his blog today. "Even if Google was open in a background tab or window, or in a hidden iframe created by an add-on, the Pac Man music and sound effects would start. And that confused some people."

Sounds coming form the web browser even when you're not visibly visiting the Google homepage? I'd say that's a reasonable source of confusion.
