‘Let it Snow’ and 'Askew': Google Goodies for Christmas and Twitter Reactions [PHOTOS, VIDEO]
It seems Google is a little tipsy! You see... no matter which part of the world you're in, Google is showering snow on everyone.
No... we aren't goofing off.
Check out Google's Easter Eggs for the Christmas season - a decorative flurry of snowflakes that covers your screen when you search Let it snow on Google.com.
The search results, not including the snowy surprise, include a list of treat items and carols - Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra's Let it Snow, Let it Snow. Furthermore, if you leave the screen unattended for a few minutes, it begins to frost over.
If you wish to resume using the computer, simply click on the defrost button made available or just click and drag the mouse pointer across the screen to wipe it away. However, if you really want to get into the Christmas spirit, you could try writing your name on the frosty screen!
Another cool Easter egg - type askew in the search bar and the screen tilts to one side. It may not be as cool as snow on your computer screen but it is worth a try.
Google Easter eggs are nothing new though. A popular one, since early November, was the barrel roll trick - type do a barrel roll in the search bar and the screen takes a complete 360-degree tumble before your eyes.
These playful tricks make the festive season even more exciting.
Here are some hilarious comments, from Twitter, made by users:
