14 DAY TRIAL // Google has just announced it will be restructuring, splitting various of its departments and organizing them into a larger company called Alphabet, in which even Google is a component part.
The Google press release that accompanies this move also comes with a new website for the new company, which you can view at abc.xyz.
The same Google announcement is displayed on the Alphabet website as well, which you can see in its entirety by pressing the "more" link.
But there's a difference with this version of the press release. It contains an Easter Egg. If you want to go looking for it yourself, be our guest. We've placed it in a spoiler box below if you just don't have the time for games.
It will redirect you to hooli.xyz, a fake website for the Hooli startup, portrayed in Silicon Valley HBO series, which many people said to be a funny take on Google X and its weird projects.
Google wants mad sekz? Really?
The other funny thing you're going to find on Alphabet website may not be as intentional as the first.
On the right side of the page, you see a collection of alphabet blocks some of us played with in our childhood.
The problem is that, if you take a look over the top letters, you could easily and without any much effort read them as "mad sekz." I think someone at Google's headquarters is arranging blocks in the form of "oops" right now to save their job.
Microsoft, you sneaky little troll!
Not long after the Alphabet website was launched, social media went abuzz, and people started discovering the Easter Eggs on Alphabet's website, another more subtle joke was also making the rounds.
Apparently, just hours after Alphabet was launched, Microsoft recorded the abc.wtf domain name and made it redirect to Bing.
Also, we got word that it didn't even take half of day for the new abc.xyz domain to be blocked in China.
While Microsoft was looking to get on the Alphabet hype train, Chris Andrikanich, owner of the @alphabet Twitter handle, had one of the most confusing days of his life, with CNN, MTV and WIRED reporters trying to get in contact with him all day.
Well, that was an interesting way to end a Monday...
