1) Google’s neat tricks and hidden features
I collected a list of useful and fun Google features many people don’t know. Examples:
– “Do a barrel roll” — search that phrase and the page performs a barrel roll.
– “Zerg Rush” — searching “zerg rush” triggers an attack that destroys page elements one by one.
– “Atari Breakout” — search that and switch to Images to play the classic game.
– Google Timer — search “set timer to N minutes” to start a countdown.
– Tip calculator — search “tip calculator” to enter bill amount, tip %, and number of people to split the tip.
– Sunrise time — search “sunrise in [city name]” to see local sunrise time.
These shortcuts and easter eggs make Google more fun and practical for quick tasks.
