Have you ever entered the words “do a barrel roll” into the Google search engine?
Do it and thank me later. Seriously, it’s really cool.

OMG that WAS really cool! I can now pretend I’m in Inception (or a Google version of it anyway)!

Thank you Clarissa.
Also, I Googled some other Google tricks and you have GOT to type “zerg rush” and see what happens 😀
These tricks are awesome for class; the teacher comes by and you can just say you were searching for something!

// Do it and than me later.
What do you mean by “and than me”? I did that, then searched in Google “Clarissa’s blog” and everything looked usual.

A barrel roll is a precision aircraft manuever. I am not going to search for it right now, but I will be shocked if it is anything else.

If you do it, you will be shocked. 🙂 🙂 But you have to enter the words specifically into the Google search engine.

OK. I always use the Yahoo search engine, but I can use google if necessary, I suppose!

You probably knew this for the case of zerg rush, but both of these scripts were inspired by videogames. “Do a barrel roll” is a catchphrase of sorts of a sidekick in Star Fox, a game about a team of anthropomorphic animals shooting evil in space.
I guess it will surprise no one to find out that Google engineers are nerds. 🙂
