Google Easter Egg – Atari Breakout

Google Easter Egg – Atari Breakout

I will begin and end with “you are welcome.” You’ll see.

So I just discovered a Google Easter Egg I was unaware of. Obviously there are so many Google Easter eggs out there that no one human can keep them all straight. (If you are interested in flipping through a non-comprehensive list you can do so here. Yes. An enormous and utterly daunting list.

  1. Go to images.google.com
  2. Type in Atari Breakout
  3. Cancel all plans for the night

Oh – and by the way, “you are welcome”. I told you so.
