Best Hidden Google Tricks

 

399999999999999-399999999999998 – Google search says the answer is zero! Wolfram Alfa calculates the same to ‘1’. The mystery behind this is yet to be solved.

 

Festivus – The holiday, which originated on the show “Seinfeld” in 1997, generally takes place on Dec. 23. In celebration of the holiday, when you search “Festivus” Google displays the traditional “Festivus” pole.

 

The loneliest number – The answer to this question will shock you to your very core.

 

Webdriver torso – Turns the Google logo into the moving colored blocks. Webdriver Torso is a YouTube account made by Google that posts mostly 11-second videos consisting of blue and red rectangles that change position, accompanied by a series of beeps which change in pitch. This is one of the best fun things to do with Google search.

 

Super Mario Bros – Shows an info card for Super Mario Bros. Clicking on the flashing question mark generates a coin and 200 points. After 100 coins, the “1UP” sound plays. I killed about 30 mins on this.

 

Google in 1998 – Will generate a layout similar to the one Google used for its search engine in 1998. And it’s only available for 1998 and not any other year.

 

Conway’s Game of Life – Ggenerates a running configuration of the game to the right of the search results. The process cannot be stopped or altered by the user once it starts. So try at your own risk!

 

Google.com/teapot – Returns a page that says “418. I’m a teapot” among other things. Clicking on the teapot will make it tip over and pour out. Google engineers have way too much free time.Once in a blue moon – Its not a vague term like you think. It’s a specific number.

 

The answer to life, the universe and everything presents – is 42. There, you have it!

 

Cool things you can do with Google

 

Bletchley Park – Will show an info card on the side of the page where the headline will be decoded in real time. Bletchley Park is the location of the U.K.’s code-breaking center, which helped the allies break axis power codes in WWII.

 

Flip a coin – A coin will be flipped and returned via your CD tray or the slot where you enter the floppy disc.

 

Roll a die – Unfortunately, unlike the coin, only a virtual die will be rolled and the result will be displayed. How boring!

 

Pacman – Click to play the popular game Pacman (with the same music and sounds).

 

Bacon Number – [Any actor’s name] followed by “Bacon Number” will reveal how many degrees of separation they are from actor Kevin Bacon, who has been the victim of the “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon” game since the 1990s.
