A long time ago in a galaxy far far away
« on: December 02, 2015, 09:50 AM »
Modified because of wrong link:
I have not tried this, and I probably won't, because I don't know how to stop it again! Google has created an easter egg for Starwar lovers: Type A long time ago in a galaxy far far away in >the search box<, and watch the magic come alive! It is of course all about the Star Wars The Force Awakens opening December 17 in a theater near you. Or is that maybe only in Denmark? Did you already have the premiere? I have no idea, because I haven't seen any of them, and I will most likely not watch this one either. But this easter egg sounds fun.

Go to Google.com/starwars (sorry, dot now removed), and log in.

Are you into Star Wars?  :tellme:

It does not appear to work in IE11 ... But then again not much does these days.
