Some people have too much time on thier hands.........

    * Open up Command Prompt or Terminal client and type: telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl and hit Enter
    * Open up some popcorn
    * Enjoy ASCII goodness


If you are using Vista, you'll need to enable the Telnet client first:
Start Menu>Control Panel>Programs>Turns Windows features on or off>Check 'Telnet Client'

Well i wasted a bit of time and ended up here:

Quote
ACHTUNG! Alles touristen und non-technischen peepers!

  Das machine control is nicht fur gerfinger-poken und
  mittengrabben. Oderwise is easy schnappen der springenwerk,
  blowen fuse, und poppencorken mit spitzensparken.
  Der machine is diggen by experten only. Is nicht fur
  geverken by das dummkopfen. Das rubbernecken sightseenen
  keepen das cotten picken hands in das pockets,
  so relaxen und watchen das blinkenlights.


That's told me!  eeek:

Can't open a connection to the host. That could be down to the office firewall though
The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.
