When you update your status on Facebook there’s always a little line below that says “via so-and-so-device”. Usually, that’s your computer, iPhone, Android or Blackberry. But there are secret codes to change that into almost anything, including:

Skynet

Telegram

Carrier Pigeon

Morse Code

Message in a Bottle

Commodore 64

Your moms computer

TRS-80

The codes are long number strings that can be used in the Facebook URL. Luckily someone has made this easy to use web Facebook status updater that allows you to use a pop-up menu to select any of those and more. You just have to be logged into Facebook to use it and make your friends believe that you are posting from an iPhone 5—so you can be smacked the next time they see you for being a clown.
