Geek Prank is a suite of full-screen simulators built for pranking colleagues. Pick one, such as a fake Windows XP screen, a fake update or a hacking display, open it, press F11 for full screen, and walk away. When someone returns to your desk, they find a computer apparently doing something dramatic.
Nothing is actually happening to your machine. The pages are visual simulations running in the browser, so they are harmless if used with a little good judgment. It is a toy for office humor, and for making a friend briefly panic about an update that does not exist.
It works best on a desktop or laptop, where full-screen mode is available. Allow about thirty seconds to set one up. A word of advice: pick targets who will find it funny, and do not use it where a fake alert could cause real concern, such as a shared work system.
Tips for getting the most out of it
- Press F11 to go full screen.
- Pick pranks that suit the person; a fake update is gentler than a fake hack.
- Use a desktop or laptop.
