The internet is a virtual world that allows every user to create his own elements the way he wants it and without any limit of imagination. In the past years, the internet became a business, because a lot of companies tried to create software solutions and other services to earn money and to increase their popularity. We must not forget that the internet is one of the main sources for information and not a way to attack other users or to exploit software vulnerabilities.

It seems like there are a lot of users that are still considering that the internet can be funny and relaxing, a group of developers that created one of the most interesting site of our times. The World's Highest Website is an interesting idea that can attract you to the pleasure of scrolling.

"Welcome to the World's Highest Website! Currently, it's 18.939 kilometers high (that's about 11.769 miles), and an enormous pleasure to scroll. Enjoy. For fine print and technical details, either scroll down by yourself or take the elevator, which offers light speed hypertext transportation for free. (Internet Explorer people, the elevator is out of order anyway. Please press Ctrl and End instead."

The idea is very interesting and it is based on a CSS script that allows you to scroll up or down for about 18.939 kilometers, as the developers claim. "This website is a CSS experiment. Due to its nature, there are some accessibility limitations, but anybody just slightly experienced with that will understand. The technical and design principles of this site are simple: one HTML container, pure CSS styling, no workarounds, filters, or hacks," the creators mention.

So, if you want to climb on the World's Highest Website you should visit this link and experience the pleasure of scrolling with your mouse.
