I came across another easter egg this afternoon I thought I would share before I forgot about it. This one is related to OpenOffice. To find this easter egg do the following:
Start OpenOffice Spreadsheet (Applications > Office > OpenOffice Spreadsheet)
Within an empty field, type: =GAME("StarWars")
Enjoy

I found a new Gnome Easter egg the other day. Just when I thought I knew about all of them (yeah, I know, some Gnome developer is sitting back in the corner laughing about all the Easter Eggs we *don’t* know about!) I find a few more.
This one will require you to logout and log back in, but its worth the slight hiccup.
At the login prompt, where it asks for a username, enter: Require Quarter
The username and password prompt will then follow as normal, but you’ll get a quick surprise before you’re logged in.
Enjoy
I ran into some Mozilla Firefox easter eggs this afternoon. Do you have any more that I don’t know about?
Visit these addresses in Firefox 3:
about:mozilla
about:robots
Also some other interesting things to find:
about:config
about:cache
about:credits
about:license
about:buildconfig
(Reference to the “warranty” is a warning message and I’m sure its a joke. Refer here to previous warning messages prior to this one.)
Hey you! Hit ALT-F2 in your gnome desktop and type ‘free the fish’.
Trust me.
It’s ok. It won’t break your machine. I promise. C’mon!
Now you’ve got company on your desktop with Wanda the fish. Try clicking on Wanda and see what happens. Cool little easter egg in GNOME there.
…or try ALT-F2 and use ‘gegls from outer space’ for a bit of gnome gaming fun.
Thought you all might enjoy that. Better go, Wanda is chasing my cursor right now and don’t want her to catch up.
To get rid of Wanda see the comments section below.
