Prankly speaking

If it is April 1st, it must be time to play some pranks. Here are some of the more notable ones that were littered on the web.

1) Some pranks that self-proclaimed geeks like to pull off. A few of them could cause some serious distress actually, so I don't know if they qualify as simple pranks.

2)In this is the age of lists, what would we do if we did not have a list of the 100 greatest April Fool's Day hoaxes?

3) In case you wanted to know what each famous web portal did to target unsuspecting folks, here's a collection of the tricks played by various websites.

4) My favourite one, first brought to my attention by DSC, is the one that was the brainchild of the ingenious folks at Google and Virgin Atlantic Airlines. Don't forget to test your pioneering potential!!

5) Finally, the folks at Google also came up with their version of time travel, in their prank on the Gmail forum.
