How did people find those secret pages?

Like If I Ran the Camera or the tire/matt cake stuff? I mean, did they just happen to accidentally type in tirecake? lol. I've always wondered how people found so many of the secret pages on the site.

I've often wondered this myself.

I suspect much of it ties into things like source codes, and resources like the Wayback Machine that show the dates of any changes to the domain or whatever. (Stuff I do not understand.) And, occasionally, a dropped hint or two by the Chaps themselves don't hurt either. =3

Well, I'm not sure how well it'd work, but you could make a makeshift index by typing [inurl:.html OR inurl:.swf site:homestarrunner.com] without the brackets into a good search engine, and it's pull up a list of every page and flash file in the site.

So maybe you could do it that way? I'm not sure how well it works though, because I tried it with videlectrix.com, and it omitted a couple pages.

You could also use google by searching site:homestarrunner.com filetype:swf
