Google Chrome âGoats Teleportedâ Easter Egg for Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| The folks at Google and in-fact lots of other
| major companies have a knack for hiding Easter
| eggs within their products. We have covered
| several such Easter Eggs in the past.
|
| However, we can across another Easter Egg in
| Google Chrome where users can teleport goats
| from the Task Manager. This is basically
| available on version 4.0.266.0 of the Linux
| version of Chrome.

Asus and Garmin Make an Android
,----[ Quote ]
| I just love company tie ups, and Asus â
| Garmin is one particular company I am
| interested in. I have yet to see any of
| their old devices first hand, though I am
| aware of the M20 and G60 by reputation. The
| G60 in particular got my attention when it
| launched as it used the Linux mobile
| operating system.

Android Garmin Nuvifone in the works

| The revelation comes following the

| coincidence, particularly given the
| impressive demo we've seen so far.
