It's not an "easter egg": http://searchengineland.com/google-finance-brings-up-apple-stock-chart-for-search-on-sell-143690 http://searchengineland.com/google-fi

  And yet they apparently rushed out a code change, which disappoints me. I understand adjusting the code, but a politicized factor of rushing out a change to something that isn't a bug just because you're worried it'll be misinterpreted is something that makes me frown. Unless google normally gets code changes put to production in a couple hours on a weekend night, in which case I take it back and hurrah google!

    Better safe than sorry? Why is that disappointing that they "fixed" it quickly? Heck, just look at the comments in this post and people are already pulling out that tired "Don't be evil" quote again and trying to blame Google for this or somehow associate this as some kind of evil action.

      It's disappointing if they only prioritize fixes that could make them falsely look bad. Emphasis on 'if' and 'falsely'.

      The irony being that Google is being sued for manipulating their search results?

    Or the more likely cause, which it was an easter egg. Google got caught with it's hand in the cookie jar, and removed the offending code before it got in trouble.
