Neat Google Search Tricks

Hey, everyone! Today I'm gonna post some neat easter eggs Google puts in its search engine. There's quite a lot of them, so I'll post about the ones I find the most interesting and fun. All of the following searches have to be done without the quotes. So get your fingers ready to type (or rather, copy paste) and open some new tabs. Here they are:

- Search for "atari breakout". Then click on the images section. You'll have a neat surprise.

- Search for "do a barrel roll" I think you can guess what will happen. Also, searching for "tilt" results in a similar effect.

- Search for "zerg rush". See how long you can survive...

- Search for "Conway's Game of Life". Apparently, if you have lots of patience, you can see the word Google form on the right.

- Search for "anagram". Notice anything strange in the suggestions? As a follow up, search "define anagram". Again, the "did you mean?" suggestions seem to be a little off...

- Search for "the number of horns on a unicorn". Unsurprising? Well, you can also have google answer you "the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything". Well, I guess Google DOES know everything...

Well, that's all. Feel free to leave your thoughts and comments. If you know about another nice trick, feel free to comment.
