Google’s secret option, I bet you didn’t know about it

Google’s secret option, I bet you didn’t know about it

Google, which is undoubtedly the most used search engine in the world, has always interesting features on it home page. They try to keep it up to the date with the day’s significance. Every now and then, there is some new fascination on the page. For this
particular reason, they have changed their logo over gazillion times to honor special events such as artists’ birthdays, special days, inventions, holidays and lunar eclipses.  

Since the Christmas is just around the corner and winter season has set in, Google has added a wonderful option on the page. It is the “let it snow” option.

You just need to open the main page of Google search and write “Let it snow”. You will see the snow falling from the top page. The browser will be filled with snow, which you can skate around with your mouse. The screen will act just like
a frozen lake, showing the path your cursor has taken. Once the screen if totally filled, you see the option “defrost”. Want to start over? Simply click the “defrost” button and again you’ll see a clear screen, adorned by that easy wind and downy flake filling
it up anew.

It was hard to imagine what Google would come up with after "do a barrel roll”, which they launched in the month of November.  It was a pleasant discovery by Google searchers. Likewise, the mega-minds have now turned the page into a frosty lake. The snow
fall starts slowly and lowers your screen light. Eventually, the search results on the page become sort of invisible. Moreover, the cursor become pretty much annoying as it slips on the frosty screen. This will actually give a great feel of the winter season.

But just be cautious that this new feature of Google can make you pull your hair and you’re your head with the wall while you will try to keep your curser in one particular position. Nevertheless, it is not that irritating, you should go check it out for
once.
