uselessness Usually, easter egg refers to a hidden message or other secret that people sneak into something they make, like a goofy picture of the programmers in an obscure part of a computer program, or a movie director appearing in a brief cameo in his own film. I wouldn't say the Wordie stuff quite fits under that definition, but it's close enough. :-)
