Software easter eggs are secret screens, videos, graphics, or other type of message that has been buried in an application. Typically, easter eggs are used to display the credits for the development team or to display a humorous message. Easter eggs can be found in any type of software including games, word processing applications and even operating systems. To see an easter egg, you often will need know a special procedure or sequence of keystrokes.
