Posted on 19 December, 2011 | No Comments

The guys from the Creative department at Google is once again showing off how high their sense of humor is, they have once again added another Easter Egg and this one falls right in line with the winter season. To experience this new Easter Egg that gives the search engine a taste of Yuletide, simply to a search for “Let it Snow” on Google.

“Let It Snow” works only in browsers that support “Canvas,” part of the relatively new HTML 5 code that many developers use to create new webpages, a spokeswoman said (including the newest version of Microsoft’s browser, IE 9). This is the second Easter Egg to be added within a two month period, joining the “do a barrel roll” that was added back in November.

Clicking on the screen while moving your cursor around will enable you to scrape some of the virtual snow away. In addition to that, once your screen is complete frozen you can defrost by clicking the button at the top of the page.
