And xkcd fans out there?

http://xkcd.com/1110/

It's a click-and-drag comic panel that took me two days to explore and I
still missed most of the panels!

Some statistics from another website:

Today’s xkcd comic <http://xkcd.com/1110/>, unless someone can convince me
otherwise, now holds the record for the biggest comic panel *ever*.
Fittingly, the strip is called “Click and drag” and you’ll have to do a LOT
of it to read the entire thing.

At 165888 x 79872 pixels, or 1.3 terapixels, the image would fill the
screens of 4212 iPads with retina displays in an 81 x 52 grid. The
grayscale image is 12.3 gigabytes in size. If it was printed at a size big
enough that you could see the people, it would cover a football end zone.
And as you might expect in a Randall Munroe comic, there are little
treasures to be discovered all over the place. I don’t want to spoil the
fun, but yes, Waldo’s in there too.

Yes, there are people who have started stitching the full image together,
but we’d like to warn you that the full image is not safe for work. Not
that there are any naughty bits, but the full-size image is so large it
will crash most computers if you try to open it.

P.

P.S. http://xkcd-map.rent-a-geek.de if you don't have the hand dexterity to
do the click-and-drag!
