If you own a tablet which supports accelerometers then this is quite an interesting trick.

On a regular laptop/desktop browser go to:

http://www.stripenight.com/racer/

If the site is not too busy it give you another site link which you open on your phone/tablet. Just make sure you are holding the device sideways.

Then, back in the laptop/desktop browser press SPACE to start.

If all is well you should be able to control the race car with your device by tilting it sideways, forward, and backward

Neat stuff. It worked with my Nexus 7, even when I switched the device into standby.
