Google has an easter egg on their front page today that honors Robert Moog. I know... I hadn't heard of him either, but apparently, he is the inventor of the Moog synthesizer, and one of the major pioneers of electronic music. He is turning 78 today, and some Google engineers must have been fans, because if you head over to Google, you will see an old-style keyboard setup in place of the Google title. What's really cool about it is that you can actually play it! Furthermore, there are a number of additional settings for the virtual device that change the way it sounds, and you can even record your musical creations/monstrosities and send them to your friends.
