To Submit: make a blog post with a link to your best website hack and tag it "March Microproject". Please remember to keep all your hacks school appropriate, and happy webpage-hacking!

Tips and Tricks:

• Some websites are better for hacking than others. We’ve found that YouTube or Facebook pages don’t work very well. However, pages with less interactive features, like news sites and search engines, are great candidates for hacking.
• You can publish your pages by hitting P while your X-Ray Goggles are enabled. If you want to remix that page some more, just start with the page you published and remix that!
• Become a Hackasaurus ninja! When in X-Ray Goggles-mode, press ‘H’ for a cheat-sheet of Hackasaurus commands

Bonus Points
