Easter eggs are a secret message or screen buried in an application. Typically, easter eggs are used to display the credits for the development team or to display a humorous message.
To see an easter egg, you need to know a special procedure or sequence of keystrokes.
Click on this
link to see many, many eggs!
Here is a good example with Amazon.com
1. Go to amazon.com
2. When you're at the welcome page, scroll to the bottom until you see a whole bunch of links.
3. Click the "Directory of All Stores" link.
4. It will take to new page. Scroll all the way to the bottom until you see the copyright notice.
5. Directly under 1996 in the copyright notice is a small invisible link. Click on it. (If you can't seem to find it, that doesn't mean it's not there. Try holding down the tab key. This will highlight all the buttons on the page. I'm not sure if this works on all browsers though. I know it works on explorer.)
6. It will take you to a secret hidden web page in honor one of their old employees.
For those who are just plain lazy and want to take all the fun out of actually finding the egg, here is the link:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/su...285285-2788635
(I personally wouldn't use the link unless you have trouble finding the egg, because it really spoils the fun.)
This is one of my favorite easter eggs and I hope you'll find it cool to. Enjoy!
