Google's Blink Easter Egg



There's a new Google Easter Egg: search for [blink html] and the words "blink" and "html" will start to flash slowly. Google emulates the <blink> element, which is no longer supported by modern browsers.



"The blink element is a non-standard presentational HTML element that indicates to a user agent (generally a web browser) that the page author intends the content of the element to blink (that is, alternate between being visible and invisible). Despite its initial popularity amongst home users in the 1990s, it has since fallen out of favor due to its overuse and the difficulty it presents in reading," explains Wikipedia.
