Star Wars easter egg found in Google search result page

Of course there is a Star Wars easter egg in the Google search result page, because why not? WIth the upcoming release of The Force Awakens next month, the tributes and easter eggs have been popping up everywhere lately.

Google is not going to be left out, of course, so they put a little hidden secret in its search results page for us. Simply search the text "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away" and the search results page becomes the opening credits Star Wars crawler with scrolling text. It only works on the "web" portion as the additional tabs like images, shopping, video, etc remain the same, but it's pretty cool if you ask me.

That's not all though. If the scrolling text wasn't enough,John Williams' original score (What DIDN'T he do the score for?) can be heard in the background. It's funny because no matter how old I get, I'm 36 now, I still smile every time I hear that theme.

T – minus 23 days and counting…..
