Category: News

Plenty of Aprils Fools' jokes this year - for a comprehensive list, Wikipedia is probably your best bet. There was plenty from the usual suspects, such as BMW adding their Canine Repellent Alloy Protection to their already impressive collection. The Register, among other stories, reported how a teacher's head exploded.

Of course, Google didn't stay silent. They have plans to live on Mars in the form of Virgle, and have also been busy updating Google Books so you can smell the pages. If you live in Australia, you are privileged to able to see tomorrow's Internet today, thanks to Google's innovation. Finally, GMail has a new feature to send e-mails back in time, thanks to their e-flux capacitor.
