Fun Javascript Hack used in MySpace from back in 2005 - [Samy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samy_%28computer_worm%29)  which Robin talked about:
	Samy (also known as JS.Spacehero) is a cross-site scripting worm (XSS worm) that was designed to propagate across the social networking site MySpace by Samy Kamkar.
