Easter Egg: Website 24-25 (Website 1.0!!!)

With the launch of Website 26, I have retired the site’s ‘Easter Egg’ that was in-place for Websites 24 and 25. An ‘Easter Egg’ is a joke or hidden message in a piece of software or a web site.

If a users found the egg, the whole site would flip into an overlay theme that made the site look a lot like the original 1995 version of the site, Website 1.0!!!
