While reading an article on pcmag.com, I came across a fun feature hidden in OpenOffice. Unfortunately this feature isn’t a button you press to make it as fast as Gnumeric…
Run OpenOffice.org’s Calc (found here), and enter =GAME(“StarWars”) exactly that way into any cell in your blank worksheet. When you do, a window pops up with a simple space invaders game, for the wasting of your time.
True, a much better version of the classic Space Invaders could be found elsewhere on the web as a flash game. But on a network where these types of sites are blocked content, it could… come in handy? Personally I’ve always preferred Galaga.
Then again, OOo most likely would not be implemented in a corporate/education environment. Not to generalize.
Nice post, amazing looking website, added it to my favorites!!
