i always do try to come up with TEH genius april fools joke, but as usual i yet again fail this year.
having a look around museumofhoaxes.com does not help actually, because the competition is steep. i just say the swiss spaghetti harvest by the bbc, and rest my case. at any rate, its time to go out and harvest my spaghetti tree [because yes, it may have been a hoax back then, but in the meantime we, the crafty swiss, have invented spaghetti trees].
well, here’s something: take a guess which of the following is in fact not an april fool hoax, but then again could be. not:
gmail goes public – is this now public public or is public beta public? anyone need an invite?
boringboring.org – the boingboing.net gang has announced that they will rename their succesful blog to boringboring.org – a directory of dull things; in order to reintroduce a sense of self-irony and humility to their endeavor. here’s a mirror.
filewile releases their single barbarella as an mp3 at finetunes.net.
were you able to find filewile on finetunes?
actually no. i was not. maybe this turned out to be the april fools joke after all, and i thought it was not.
hm, weird. dustbowl told me it’s gonna be available…
i’ll have to ask him.
yeah. he told me as well. and it even says so on the press release. there must have been some problems…
