Type This Code To Go Retro in YouTube Search

Everyone knows that YouTube is a video sharing website, created by three former PayPal employees in 2005 and later it was owned by Google in 2006, on which users can upload, view and share videos.

To celebrate its upcoming #Geekweek event, YouTube has started an Easter egg hunt on its Twitter feed.

If you think you are Geeky enough want to crack  the code by yourself, stop reading now as there are spoilers below.

For those who are less cryptography-savvy, the code translates to "/ geekweek". Type that into YouTube search and the site will turn into a retro, ASCII version, bringing those of a certain age among us back into the time of Bulletin Board Systems.




How do you like YouTube's retro look? Share your thoughts in the comments.
