April Fools bugs the hell out of me because everyone on the web that is "popular" seems to partake in it so I figured it would be best to start an online compilation of sites with their jokes so I can do my best to avoid them.

Please list your finds so that we may ignore the insanity.

Wordpress 2.5 was released!

Oh wait, that was real ...

Damnit, I REALLY need to learn to SEARCH better before posting a note ;) ALWAYS happens when I haven't had my wake up juice yet.

Anyway, delete mine, I'll repost them here.

MacThemes 2 - Cease and Desists...

Google and Virgin send us to Mars.

@shadowsun: Ha ha. My heart skipped a beat then.

We (9rules) have done April Fools posts in the past but I don't think we've come up with anything clever enough to be deemed 9rules-worthy this year. Or maybe it'll hit us later on in the day :)

YouTube is RickRollin people like it's goin out of style today. (Visit YouTube.com and click on ANY of the featured videos)

I'm just bored of it all now. Everybody and their brother has been squeezing out logs of fake news all day and I'm just fed up. It's just an epic waste of time. Perhaps I should have stayed in bed.

What's bugging me are the "cease and desist" Apple sites that have essentially turned off their websites for the day and ruined every shred of time wasting I had planned for the day.

Blizzard april fools jokes make me cry, because it's normally something I want to be true.

I would so play a bard.

WoW - Molten Core

Is equally funny...

I'm suspicious of everyone, today! I guess it's fortunate enough that I've cut my browsing during work in recent months...

This may fall under the category of "all Youtube," but Maholo Daily interviewed Steve Jobs.

Also, Andy Ihnatko is invading Apple HQ.

I seem to like this note a lot...

In any case: Marketplace (an NPR show) totally got me with this story.

That damn Rick Astley song was on the radio when I got in the car to go to work. I guess even "Snap 94.1, the rhythm of Memphis" is in on the joke.

Jezebel.com let this drag on a little long – to the point that I thought it may be for real. Well done, them.

InDesign Drops Support for Print Publishing

Death Cab for Cutie set up a pretty elaborate prank involving a Ben Gibbard solo project.

Google wins as always, though. When I stretched the "Virgle" window to fit my screen, after a certain width a little sign popped up in the image that said "Nice monitor!"

Damn! Let's have that on Chawlk!

I just found this one. Blizzard was busy it seems. Not only did they do the two pranks above, they also made every forum response have a random lol, lolcats, lmao, lolwut, kekeke, etc. inserted throughout the person's response. I found a random thread where someone questioned where those came from because he didn't type it.

Which is particularly ironic since they had extended downtime yesterday. Can you imagine people complaining "I want a refund for this downtime" to have random lols put in it? Priceless. And they made all the avatars bears.
