Love this! But the sad part is when it ends. :(

Its pretty cool, but it would be better if you could open the tab manually instead of automatically or have a search tab; besides that, I loved it.

Very cute, and brings back fond memories of early CS classes. :) I would like to have user settings such as speed, seed density, foreground/background color though.
