Yay Pacman<\/h4>\n

No one loves web Easter eggs more than Google, and over the years they’ve pulled off a lot of the best we’ve seen. Like a fully-functional Pacman Google Doodle, which is still available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Robots!<\/h4>\n

Type about:robots<\/strong> into your address bar in Firefox to get the lowdown on Your Plastic Pal.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Kitkat.com<\/h4>\n

“View the source” Easter eggs are always fun. On KitKat.com<\/a>, view the source to see the famous logo.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Google in 1998<\/h4>\n

Go back to the 90s with retro Google search. Simply google “Google in 1998”<\/a> to get started. Bonus: no ads.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Skybet’s Look Busy Browsing<\/h4>\n

Using Skybet at work? ‘Look busy’ by clicking the icon above the Facebook share button on the right hand side of the page. Perfect.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Pterodactyl<\/h4>\n

Another great view-the-source Easter egg, this time from the legend that is TheOatmeal.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Dr Who Tardis<\/h4>\n

The tardis outside Earls Court tube station<\/a> on Google Maps is a true British classic.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Blank Page<\/h4>\n

Just as bizarre as the similarly-named blank pages in school exam booklets…Wikipedia's entry for Blank Page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Atari Breakout<\/h4>\n

If you’re a fan of retro gaming, you’ll love the fully playable Breakout game available via Google Images. Just search for “atari breakout”<\/a> for instant addiction.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Blink HTML<\/h4>\n

Hey, remember back in the day when this was one of about ten HTML tags? Turns out it’s no less annoying now. Annoy yourself with a blast from the past by typing “blink html” into Google.<\/p>\n
