Who was the Egyptian god gave judgment?

There are multiple gods who take part in the judgment, but the most significant role is the feather of Ma'at. Ma'at is the goddess of truth and justice, same as the ostrich feather she wears on her head. Her feather is weighed against the heart of a deceased person and if the heart's weight is equal to the feather, the deceased person can live with Osiris in his paradise. If not, the heart was fed to Ammit (a female demon with a body that is part lion, hippopotamus and crocodile), and the soul of the person would forever be restless and would not be allowed to join Osiris.

Finding a long very thin white feather on your computer?

both white and the feather often symbolize truth. white is a kin to purity and therefor truth and the feather blows away with just a puff of the wind, the idea is that truth is just as fleeting and easily frightened as a feather in the wind. which brings us to another idea the feather may represent and that is the freedom of humans to move between worlds. That representation is namely from wicca but the other two have many suggestions and ties to their meanings in many cultures throughout history.
