Just read this interesting post on sneaking an Easter Egg into the Cucumbertown application. The source code was being watched by peer reviewers. So they had to get tricky. They wanted a song to play when they pressed the secret key combo. They hid the data for the song within an image. The tactic is nothing new. But I like the ideas behind using this to get past the watchguards.
Still not sure I understand how they hid the code that actually played the music. Maybe you can follow. Check out the original post on this early hack. Be warned. These peeps code in C#. Ouch.
