BoingBoing reports a secret code in Google Reader. The famous Konami Code used in dozens of Konami (and non-Konami games) since the NES days has made its way into Google Reader. Press Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A will reset your unread items to 30 (like Contra’s 30-extra lives) and decorate your sidebar with a ninja. Reloading the page puts everything back to normal. Researchers are still analyzing the code’s usefulness.
