Edit any page on the web right in IE

Edit any page on the web right in IE! Ever visit a site and feel an overwhelming urge to mess around with the content? You know, just replace a name with your own, or move a picture somewhere other than where it is? How about rewriting the copy of a story just because you’re bored and don’t have anything better to do? No? Well, just because you never wanted to doesn’t mean you couldn’t have.

Just type javascript:alert(document.body.contentEditable=true) into the IE address bar and away you go. Have fun, enjoy, and be careful, ‘cuz we all know that WYSIWYG is harmful to your health.

Thanks to Andrew Stevenson for the tip.
