In the last DYK, I had talked about some hoax pages that Google had created on April Fool’s Day<\/a>. This time too, it’s about Google but I have brought some more interesting stuff that you would surely like.<\/p>\n

Today, I am gonna tell you some easter eggs in Google Search. Check out!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Nice trick<\/strong>: Go to Google.com. Search for “ascii art”. You will see that the Google logo has turned into a ascii code.<\/li>\n
  2. The loneliest number<\/strong>: Searching for “the loneliest number” on Google will give you the result in calculator as 1!<\/li>\n
  3. Wondering what is life? Google answers it<\/strong>!: Searching for “the answer to life, the universe, and everything” on Google will give you the answer from the calculator as 42! This was related to a film called “The Hitchhikers Guide to Galaxy”<\/strong> in which they find out some answer through complicated calculations. Sorry, i don’t much as I haven’t seen the movie.<\/li>\n
  4. Hmmm, I can see that!<\/strong>: Searching for “the number of horns on a unicorn” on Google will give you the answer as 1. [The actual reason behind this is that Google sometimes considers these words as strings. You can verify this y multiplying those words with another number. This applies for the above example too]<\/li>\n
  5. Oh, is it?<\/strong>: Searching for “once in a blue moon” on Google search will give you the result as “1.16699016 \u00d7 10-8 hertz” in the calculator.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    That looks like a small list, isn’t it? That’s all I could get for the “search tricks” this time. Will update it as and when I come to know about new ones.<\/p>\n

    To make this post a little longer, and entertain you for some more time, I have added some cool easter eggs here.<\/p>\n
