Save this code as randomURL.html. Everytime you open the file w/ a browser it will try to visit a random Internet page. Unfortunately most random trials does not take you a browser renderable webpage. I am open to ideas on how to make certain it finds a good webpage everytime.

- First, remove IP blocks that are reserved internal. 192..., 10..., 127..., etc.
- Second, instead of generating random IPs, try to hit aggregators of popular links, such as delicious.com, technorati.com, digg.com, etc.
- Third, see if you can generate random shortcut links that resolve: http://bitly.com, http://shorturl.com, etc.
