# 8 of the Best Easter Eggs on Websites

It’s not just the Easter Bunny who hides Easter eggs. Programmers and designers are in on the game. Below are some of my favourite hidden gems around the web.

Make sure the captions are enabled. There’s an aside from the caption writer. Plus it’s the Swedish Chef so it’s funny on its own.

There are a ton of these search commands. Type “do a barrel roll”. Or visit (http://google.com/pacman) to play a game of Pacman with the Google Logo.

Watch what happens to this team photo when you resize your browser window. (http://alistapart.com/article/responsive-web-design), then click and drag the corner of your web browser to make it smaller. You’ll see a great example of [“Responsive Web Design” in the article by Ethan Marcotte](http://alistapart.com/article/responsive-web-design).

Fabergé (and the world’s biggest Easter egg hunt) raises money for charity with this real-life Easter egg hunt that encourages all collectors to share their egg pictures on social media with @TheBigEggHuntNY and the hashtag #TheBigEggHuntNY. The Big Egg Hunt started in London in 2012. Eggs were hidden across the city and people were encouraged to hunt for them to win various prizes. The egg sculptures were then sold to raise money for charity organization Elephant Family.

(https://twitter.com/beta5chocolates) in Vancouver BC is running a simplified version of the Egg Hunt on social media this year. What I like about the Beta5 Chocolates campaign is that the Easter eggs are hidden near their retail location, which in itself can be hard to find. The geographical landmarks help potential customers realize just how close they are to amazing chocolate.

### **8. On a Mac? Zoom in on the TextEdit Icon**

Mac users can enjoy this little Easter egg. Go to Applications, click on the TextEdit icon then click the spacebar to zoom in on the icon. The letter starts “Dear Kate, Here’s to the crazy ones.”
