The 2013 Harlem Shake bookmarklet revived
A dead 2013 bookmarklet was rebuilt with Claude so it works again on modern websites, with no external files.

The full story
The original 2013 Harlem Shake bookmarklet made page elements dance to the song when you pressed it on any site. It stopped working because its external CSS and MP3 files are gone, and modern content security policies would block them anyway.
The maker's fix was to inline the audio as base64 and reimplement the CSS as inline JavaScript, so there are no external dependencies. The post describes it as a fun side quest to keep a piece of internet history alive.
