The 1st of April is regarded as April Fool’s. People play practical jokes on their friends and family, even newspapers print some sort of story that gets everyone worried, before they read the tagline – “You’ve been fooled!”
The web is no exception to April Fool’s. Google always seems to come up with some weird and wacky idea. This year it was the turn of Google Romance.
Another practical joke of Google’s was on their Google Maps application. Viewing Area51 using Google Maps brings up this little gem.
Did you take the April Fool out of anyone this year? Let me know about it!
