April Fools Day, Twitter Style
Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Tue, 04/01/2008 - 09:25Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit. It must be bunnies! April Fools. I enjoy many of the April Fool’s Pranks online, but this year, I just don’t have the energy to come up with anything interesting myself right now. We’ll see if I get some inspiration later in the day.
So far, I’ve enjoyed the YouTube prank (go to YouTube and select any of the Featured Videos). Another video I really like is the Flying penguins found by BBC programme, as reported in the British newspaper, Telegraph.
I’m also really like Virgle. Moist importantly, using Gmail Custom Time™, I can send all of my emails on April Fool’s day, whatever day it really is. Hat Tip to friends on Twitter for highlighting these pranks. Who says that Twitter isn’t a valuable source of information?
