Everywhere you look there are hidden messages called Easter Eggs. They're on cars, toys, CD's, books, and even in your software.

Wow, they actually finished it.

Technically, this isn't an easter egg - an easter egg is a feature that is hidden in the software. What this does is allows you to telnet, basically connect over IP, to the site towel.blinkenlights.nl and view it in the text-only telnet window.

An actual easter egg is something like the Jack Black/Jennifer Love Hewwit spoof of Lord of the Rings on the Fellowship of the Ring extended edition set - something that is hidden in the product itself.
