    April Fools! (2010)

    It's HERE!! Quite possibly the greatest holiday of computer history!!
    ...
    Well, anyway, I like it.

    SHARE!! I'm most interested to see who has what today, but related good stories and tall tales are welcome as well.

    So far I haven't seen much activity (it's only been 40 minutes in my timezone). guest@xkcd looks interesting, but it seems that the javascript has a fallacy, so we may never know what all it has to offer...

    ---EDIT---
    Ah! It's working now!

    So I heard that Linus has decided to move to Microsoft to run their Unix operations.

    Yeah I saw the xkcd one, that's great. Reddit decided to give everyone a button to turn themselves into an admin for the day. Slashdot being the greatest April Fools site has been surprisingly quiet so far....that Gnome one even looks like it might be real. That or the comedy is too subtle for me.

    Happy April Fools day you idiots!

    I've never heard of most of those.


    Edit: never mind the above... they've changed it back to normal already.
