XKCD creator Randall Munroe is no stranger to huge, detailed, humorous comics — but today’s takes the cake.
Entitled “Click and Drag,” the image of the comic’s bottom panel will move as you drag it, not unlike browsing on, say, Google Maps.
And, like Google Maps, the image seemingly goes on forever — underground passageways, flying whales and skyscrapers are among the features that Munroe included.
You’re liable to lose a lot of time with this one. Bring a snack.

oh man, i should have plugged my mouse in, the little touchpad on my laptop got wore the heck out. xkcd is a fun place to be. i kept the ‘tech support cheat sheet” posted on my cubicle wall for a long time. when someone would come in to ask for help, i’d ask them where they were on the cheat sheet. i’m not even in the tech support business, but my coworkers liked dealing with me rather than IT. worked out well up until they removed everyone’s ability to make any kind of change. we had to call in just to get icons removed from our desktops or to set up our printers (which would randomly get erased every other week). good times.
