Yes, I fell for it again this year…for just a minute. Remember last year, when Google tried to sell us Gmail Paper? Complete with beta user testimonials?
Well, they’ve done it again. No, you can’t really pre-date your e-mail to pretend you remembered your boss’s birthday. This is, as the good-humored folks at Google said, “crazy-talk.”
Actually, all of those are old. This year’s Google April fools joke is http://www.google.com/virgle/index.html . You can to it directly from the Goolge home page by clicking the Cool world link below the main search field. For today anyway.
Those are funny, Ron. Methinks some of the Google employees have too much free time on their hands! lol
Yeah, I said precisely that earlier today. Can you imagine getting paid big bucks to think that stuff up? What a life!
This comment section is for the readers of Ft. Hard Knox, a place for political conservatives to share information about online activism. We are not "fair and balanced," and we aren't refereeing a "free speech zone." Intelligent, funny, and on-topic comments are welcome. Trolls, spam, and liberal propaganda are not. We may occassionally approve a comment with an obvious lefty-slant so that we can amuse ourselves by making fun of it, but most will be deleted. (Why? Because we're busy, we have lives, and when we want to talk to you we'll go visit you on Digg or the Daily KOS.)
This is a private blog, and we reserve the right to make up our own rules as we go along. The few comments which manage to squeak by our censors reflect the opinion of the commentator, and not necessarily the staff of Ft. Hard Knox.
Hint: One sure-fire way to get your comment sent directly to the "spam" folder is to call us "racists" for disagreeing with a policy of the current POTUS or speaking out against terrorism.
Your photo will display with your comment if you use gravatars.
