21 Google Easter Eggs You Probably Missed

15. The Bacon Number

How To Find It: Search any actor's name, followed by "Bacon Number". The Result: The revelation that Kevin Bacon was the centre of the universe was a lot better when he wasn't hawking the idea around to make himself some money from a mobile phone company, but that doesn't dilute any of the enjoyment of working out how many steps any given actor is from Kevin Bacon, which is precisely what this Easter Egg calculates. As an added bonus, lose absolute hours searching for every actor you've ever thought of to try and beat the system. You won't - if you can get a score of 3, you're basically a wizard.
