I suspect alot of what you're seeing with the text at the bottom of the page is just programmers easter eggs and nothing sinister.

I was just looking at http://www.facebook.com/app... and ended up here. I think easter eggs is one of the best social media applications I have seen.

Its simple, it has a hook / creates uncertainty and gives benefits for those who use it alot (unlocking eggs available like levels in a game).

I was originally read about this at http://www.demonzmedia.com/... and they are right when they say that the landing page for the "Hatching Eggs" application really needs to be moderated - check out the spam http://www.facebook.com/app... .

There's another one:
I'll find something to put here.

interesting, the best easter egg I've seen for a website was Slashdot sending out Futurama quotes in its headers.

Slightly more Easter Eggy is the friend grid:

You get to this page by selecting an '---' option from the drop down on any of the friends.php pages

As people have said, this isn't exactly new. Originally the text I remember seeing was, "I'll find something to put down here." Then, after the movie Wedding Crashers, it changed to, "I don't even know what a quail looks like." After that, I think it went to the, "To close for missles, I'm switching to guns," though I could be wrong. It doesn't seem to change very often, but I have noticed it changing more frequently in the last year than it had in the past.

Now that they're making Facebook profiles partially public to get more Google coverage, it'd be great if they got a penalty because of hidden text.

Also if that's what passes for an Easter Egg these days, I'm a regular Einstein with my programming tricks.

It's been visible by me on my phone, don't use Facebook mobile all the time, but I figured it wasn't hidden.

Eric Waller — Mon, 10 Sep 2007 20:11:05 -0000

Yeah, this is definitely not a new phenomenon. Whoever is behind it must be a big Top Gun fan because I'm pretty sure one of the first ones I saw was "Too close for missiles, I'm switching to guns." Or, maybe Zuckerberg is a scientologist...

I wouldn't exactly call this an easter egg. facebook has always put some sort of sentence (maybe not the particular one at the moment that you mention here) at the bottom of pages. i actually can't remember a time when they didn't do it.

you sure? phrase must have changed, because there's only 1 other mention of it on the interwebs.
