If any of you all have heard of the "23 Enigma", it states that everything in the universe can be simplfied or related to the number 23 somehow. Just to let you know, adding up life, you get 32, which is 23 backwards. Weird...

The number "42" it's the "answer to the life, the uni.." according to Douglas Adams "The Hitchhicker's guide to the galaxy". It has nothing to do with te quantity of letters in it. For more information: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Answer_to_Life,_the_Universe,_and_Everything (Or read the novel!. THAT is something you won't regret.)

Most of those search 'eggs' won't work, except the 42 one, because Google search is different for everybody. Example: When I entered '1', I got January 1st on Wikipedia. :P

They've changed it now but it used to be that when you luckied "weapons of mass destruction" it would come up with a page that, in the style of "the page cannot be found", said "the weapons of mass destruction cannot be found. Please..." can't remember the options. But if anyone comes across it, you'll agree it was funny.

And I was checking most of these sites, and the fact is, when you hit the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button, it tales you to the first page on the list, not some totally different sight that google put their on purpose. Like for Mozilla, ir came up because it had the number 1.0.1 in the description for the page, not necessarily because it is number 1. (Even though it is :P)

Emm the answer 42 is what the computer in the movie said was the answer for the life. The real point of it is that to ask the question for the meaning of life only to get a question for a response, but really the more we know about the universe the more it seems pointless.

WARNING: DO NOT THIS IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO RACISM. For all others, and I only did this for harmless fun, I didn't know what I'd get, type 'You smell like poo' and hit 'I'm feeling lucky'. Don't complain to me, I think that its sick and didn't know I'd get that result.
