Google Maps Easter Egg.

[DM was on fire!]

This is incredibly funny. It's gonna take a few steps, OK?

1 - Go to Google and click Maps.
2 - In the Search the Map box, type in London and hit the Search Maps button.
3 - After it's located it, click Get Directions.
4 - Type in JFK in the box on the left (aka the one that's not filled on), and click the Get Directions button.
5 - Scroll down to Step 17.

*snorts*

EDIT - I did just learn it's for pretty much any location, but they all send you into New England to get there.

Step 17 looks like the hardest one, I think.

How the heck did that get in there? XD I guess maybe they figure we don't need directions to get across oceans, so they put that in there for fun, cause what else would they put?

Haha, that's great. I wandered around and found the Eiffel Tower!

LOL that's too funny. Won't do it for the Pacific Ocean though. Sydney didn't work either.

I for one will take a plane, thank you very much.

Wimp. Back in my day we used to swim the Atlantic for morning exercise! And for the evening, we fought bare handed with a lion. A lion with a knife.

A lion named Aslan.

Pah, Narnia's Aslan didn't do much fighting.
Okay, he offed the white witch... then dissapeared to guide a boy and his horse to Narnia where he could do the fighting.
Then kidnapped Prince Caspian.

Sufficed to say he couldn't fight his way out of a wt paper bag

If you look at the previous steps, it points you to a location from which you can take a boat to swim over the Atlantic Ocean. Since you can't exactly put a car in your hand luggage, it actually makes perfect sense

Google is our dear and glorious leader. @_@
I will swim anywhere it asks me to swim.

[Pickles]

I shared this with my coworkers and we all got quite a kick out of it!

I think that'd be a little bit of a long swim - I'm out of shape....

[luckimiss7]

Well thank goodness they don't make you do that from O'Hare to Heathrow, trip may not have been as enjoyable.

You wouldn't be after you got there!

Google cracks me up sometimes. Have you ever found any of the search Easter Eggs?

Try this one:

Go to a regular Google search. Type in "French Military Victories." Click on "I'm feeling lucky." The results are hilarious. You can also try this trick with "failure,"

You can do Google searches in "Swedish Chef." (Bork bork bork!)

Google also knows "the answer to life, the universe, and everything." Although, you'd have to have read the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy to find it amusing.

Ho ho ho, French military defeats, never saw that coming
Pretty ironic since they were the only thing that stopped the British empires total dominance really.
