That Google engineers are very fond of “Easter eggs”, or easter eggs, is well known; they are usually published during the English version of April Fool’s Day, or on the occasion of curious events and anniversaries.
For example, Google came to develop entire games for special occasions, in addition to hiding secrets to celebrate the launch of a new version for Android. At Google, they’re also on top of popular culture, as the latest secret they released shows.
And it is that, on the occasion of the premiere in Europe of the film Barbie, starring Margot Robbie, Google has decided to give its search engine a coat of paint, and we only have to do one thing to see it.
Barbie and Google
The trick is very simple: just Google the word “Barbie”. Although the search is done in the usual way and there is no difference in the results, the whole page will be painted in the characteristic pink color of the character; and is that pink has always been associated with Barbie, in all its shades. Even the normally multicolored Google logo remains pink-only. We will also see some graphic effects such as stars or fireworks, which will fade over time; If we want to reactivate them, we just have to press the button that will appear at the bottom of the page.
What Google looks like when we search for “Barbie”
In this way, Google gains a very original look which, honestly, many of us wouldn’t mind having as a forever option. It is very rare for companies to make these kinds of changes, as corporate image is usually the most important and valuable part of marketing. But it’s a special occasion, the premiere of one of the most anticipated films of the year; Who was to say, considering it’s based on a doll, but all indications are that Greta Gerwig’s gang deserves it.
Of course, the results do not change, but they will all be dedicated to Barbie, from the official page of Mattel, the doll maker, to the Wikipedia entry and the official page of the film. It also changes the appearance of the information section on the right side of the page, where the band’s data is displayed, such as the synopsis or the cast.
