No doubt some of you will already be aware of Google Easter Eggs but for those of you who aren't, let me explain. Google has always had a history of being an organization with a sense of humour, the notorious Google Doodle has been brightening up many peoples searches since the first one appeared in 1998 to celebrate the Burning Man Festival. Google Easter Eggs take things one step further, a spokesman from Google said "Easter eggs are simply little fun surprises to be discovered by our users to make their Google experiences even more fun and put a smile on their face."
Here are our top 5 Google Easter Eggs, try them out! (use Google Chrome, Firefox or Safari browsers for best results)
1.Do A Barrel Roll
Type "do a barrel roll" in to the search box and press "I'm Feeling Lucky" and watch as the whole screen spins round through 360 degrees.
