Watch the World Cup live! In ASCII.

very simple instructions:

open up your command prompt (Start>Run>cmd)
type in "telnet ascii-wm.net 2006"

Stand back and marvel at what is surely the pinnacle of human ingenuity.

No, that's what it says when there's no game on. It only broadcasts live.

and many miles be still to go,
