Google Chrome :: Easter Egg, Crash, and more

Easter Egg:
  • Type
    about:internets
     into the location / address bar for blast from the past...

Useful bits:

 Type any of the following to tinker, prod, or poke at the underbelly of Chrome:
  • about:memory
  • about:stats
  • about:network
  • about:histograms
  • about:dns
  • about:cache
  • about:plugins
  • about:version
  • about:objects
  • about:chrome-nativeui
  • view-cache:[URL]
  • view-source:[URL]


The Bomb:

Any of the following is likely to crash the current version of Chrome:
  • Percent Crash. Clicking a link like this: 
    Evil link
    or, for that matter, any other target of the form "something:%"
  • Typing evil:% or something:% into the address / search bar
