soccer 2012 to commemorate holidays and
special events Google Doodle will
typically give the homepages logo of
fancy makeover for the 2012 London
Summer Olympic Games several sports
themed doodles were released as much as
we love a good game of basketball the
football soccer doodle was arguably the
standout with the player assuming the
role of a goalie the game’s objective is
to block the ball if your opponent
scores three goals it’s game over in the
spirit of an old-school video game this
Easter Egg is so straightforward and yet
so addictive even if you’re not the
biggest sports fan in the world having a
baby oh I’m having a baby no hitting the
baby number nine
Hodor for those who haven’t seen Game of
Thrones Hodor is a gentle giant who’s
tasked with carrying the crippled bran
Stark around living with a mental
handicap
he’s only capable of saying one word
Hodor
total back when it came out if you typed
or spoke his name into a Google search
engine you’d receive a simple yet epic
response code or would be repeated over
and over again which basically sums up
the character in a nutshell your hodor
hodor of course if you want to learn the
tragic backstory regarding ho doors name
you’ll have to look behind another door
number eight life the universe and
everything we want you so ah feels the
answer to what fianc to life do universe
everything anyone who’s read The
Hitchhiker’s Guide to the galaxy is sure
to appreciate this Easter Egg in the
sci-fi comedy novel a supercomputer
known as deep thought reveals that the
ultimate answer to life the universe and
everything is none other than 42 huh we
seriously waited seven and a half
million years for that yes yes I thought
it over quite funny jeez it’s 42 if you
ask Google the same question a similar
answer will await atop the search
results it’s clear that the engineers at
Google are not only big fans of Douglas
Adams work but also have delightfully
geeky senses of humor a computer of such
infinite complexity that life itself
will form part of its operational matrix
number seven space if you look up Google
space you might notice that the search
screen is drifting apart
don’t panic your computer doesn’t have a
virus there’s a new virus in the
database what’s happening it’s merely a
mind-bending easter egg courtesy of mr.
doob this neat little trick makes it
seem as if your web browser has been
launched into outer space the Google
logo the search box and everything else
are deprived of gravity which allows
them to float freely your mouse can even
manipulate these weightless objects
making them bounce all over the place
it might not be the most productive use
of your time but this is the perfect
distraction when you’re stuck in a
boring office all day I’m gonna have to
ask you to go ahead
come back another time number six Chuck
Norris
you want it come and get it thanks to
the Internet you can track down
virtually any human being on the planet
that is except for one particular
martial artist one night you’re gonna
close your eyes and when they open it
I’ll be there it’ll be time to die the
world wide web is riddled with fun facts
about Chuck Norris and by facts we mean
in jokes this just might be the ultimate
Chuck Norris gag however back when it
was working when one typed find Chuck
Norris into a Google search engine the
following message would appear Google
won’t search for Chuck Norris because it
knows you don’t find Chuck Norris he
finds you
we can’t blame Google for being afraid
of the all-american actor after all mr.
Norris has a fist behind his beard and
he isn’t afraid to use it
Chuck Norris number five ask you the
meaning of the word of skew is to not be
in a straight or level position in other
words crooked lopsided or uneven you’ll
ask you my Mira what now I ask you yours
their balance young young when you type
askew into Google you’ll get much more
than a definition the entire web browser
will be tilted from left to right as if
your screen is sinking it’s like
something out of a children’s joke book
knock-knock jokes little be this
crossbones aha
dopey feller jokes no matter how old you
are though we dare you not to smile at
this clever Easter egg you gotta admit
it’s more fun than rummaging through a
dictionary number four piano Robert Moog
was one of the most influential
individuals in electronic music
inventing the Moog synthesizer to honor
his 78th birthday Google Doodle put
together a virtual synthesizer described
by designer Ryan gormak as one of
Google’s most ambitious doodles to date
this feature actually allowed users to
record play and share their music with
friends the keyboard came complete with
a mixer oscillators filter and envelope
to produce the sweet
just sounds possible of course if you
don’t know how to play piano
you can always tinker with the Google
guitar which was created to celebrate
musician Les Paul’s 96th birthday number
3 Google pac-man it’s working
victory is assured back in the 80s you
had to go to one arcade if you wanted to
play pac-man in this day and age though
the classic Namco game is only a google
search away to commemorate pac-man’s
30th anniversary the Google logo was
altered to resemble the original video
games layout Google went all-out with
their first completely interactive
doodle which consists of 255 levels
diehards of the original know what
happens at level 256 the I’m feeling
lucky button was also revamped to read
insert coin adding another level of
authenticity by clicking the button
twice MS pac-man can also join the game
for double the fun
number two do a barrel roll there is
zero doubt that Google has quite a few
gamers in its employ
whenever you get into a tight spot in
starfox Pepe will remind you to stay
calm and no barrel roll this catchphrase
has spawned countless memes not to
mention a kick-ass Google Easter egg by
typing the legendary quote into the
search bar the browser screen will do a
total 360 just as awesome you’ll get the
same result if you type the phrase Z or
R twice it’s as if the keyboard is your
Nintendo 64 controller and Google is
your arwing before we get to our top
pick here are some honorable mentions

number one Atari breakout yet another
ingenious videogame reference this
Easter egg is a love letter to break out
the 1976 game from the good folks at
Atari by doing a Google image search for
Atari breakout all the images will
assemble to recreate the classic arcade
game with several rows of colorful
bricks stretched across the screen a
ball starts bouncing up and down the
objective is to use a paddle to prevent
the ball from touching the bottom of the
screen while also knocking out all the
bricks this Easter Egg scores bonus

of whimsy that has Google’s name written
all over it
