Pranks


It was the 1st of April yesterday, and the observant amongst us will have noticed a few April fool jokes around the web. The most obvious probably is Google’s, in which they offered a new wireless home broadband package that you install by putting the cables down the toilet bowl and flushing it. Ewww…

I also noticed Facebook’s, they offered to send someone to do a real live poke to a friend of your choice if you’re one of the top 100 poker in each network. That would actually be really cool, imagine you’re just sitting there minding your own business when suddenly there’s someone in Facebook uniform (or something) who comes and pokes you. Another prank is that an author of a blog that I read confessed that he is actually a she and all the blog entries are actually made up. Of course, he has written so much that it’s obvious that it’s a joke. Either that or the person has lousy timing when making such a confession.

Those were a few that I noticed. Has anybody spotted anything else?

Yaz.

P.S. Do you actually know anybody who has gotten married on the 1st of April? Just wondering.
