Every year since 2000, except 2001 and 2003, Google has treated netizens to at least one, sometimes 17, April Fool’s Day pranks and easter eggs. And, since we know they love to play (check out their new Google Play offering), we’re hoping 2012 will be no different.
It takes a great knack of timing and finesse to pull off the perfect April Fool’s Day prank and not everyone can do it.
Everyone knows Google Maps can be very useful for looking up directions on your computer, on your tablet and on your smartphone. But, realizing "we've long neglected one of the most popular computer systems ever sold," Google finally has a mapping app for your original 8-bit Nintendo from the 1980s.
March 30, 2011 April Fools Day is this Friday and here is the list of office pranks I read this morning.
1) Arrange with other co-workers to bring in changes of clothing and throughout Friday, change, and baffle the staff.
2) Take the tracker ball out of a co-workers mouse for some fun frustration.
3) Photocopy a paperclip onto a few pieces of paper, put them in the machine, sit back and smile at the wonder.
4) If you have access to it, re-create the office phone extension list for the day, fun, fun, fun.
5) And finally, a smirk will work. "Did you enjoy your coffee?" "Just wait until you check out the fridge" Follow these with a smirk all the while you've done nothing to either and you'll keep them guessing.
Also, enjoy this prank that's been a big hit on YouTube for a while. There may be an expletive at the end, it's unauditable to me.
