I love how productive I can be on a Chromebook. I probably spend three-quarters of my day typing away on my ASUS Chromebook Flip C214 researching and writing articles for Android Central, but every now and then, I need to take a short break to clear my head. One of the sillier and surprisingly fun things that I like to do is to freak out those around me by making my entire Chromebook screen spin into a barrel roll. Sure, you may know the trick about how to do this from a Google search page, but did you know you can make the entire screen of your Chromebook perform this acrobatic feat? I'll show you how!
How to do a barrel roll on a Chromebook the entire screen
- From whatever screen you happen to be on, hold down the following key combination: Ctrl + Alt + Shift + Rotate (rotate is the curved arrow key on the top row, just above the number 4).
- Watch your friends and family gawk as your Chromebook's screen spins around.
-
Repeat as needed (or wanted).
How to do a barrel roll on a Chromebook from Google search
-
Go to the search bar and type in the words "do a barrel roll."
-
Watch as the content in that specific tab spins around.
- Repeat as needed (or wanted).
See what I mean? Not every guide has to be about drab or dull productivity hacks. Some, like the barrel roll or dinosaur game, can just be about killing time and having fun!
