As we all know about Google's new web browser "Chrome". It was released recently and has been successful in getting good response from users. It has all essential features, good browsing speed and some new features like task manager, etc.

Did you know that Chrome also comes with lots of hidden secret pages and one cool easter egg?

Easter Egg in Google Chrome:

Yep. There is an easter egg in Chrome. To reveal it, type about:internets in addressbar and press Enter.

about:internets

It'll open a page with title "Don't Clog the Tubes!" and a cool pipe animation.

In some systems (mostly Windows Vista), you might see a blank page with title "The Tubes are Clogged!":

It seems that this easter egg uses a screen saver file "sspipes.scr" present in "%windir%\System32" folder, so if the file is not present, you'll not see the animation.

Hidden Secret About Pages in Google Chrome:

There are lots of secret about pages in Google Chrome which you access by typing their URL in addressbar and press Enter. All known About pages atm are as following:

about:memory
