Guess the Google’s 2010 April fools day prank?

by Sai on March 30, 2010

Please visit this page and read it carefully(come back again). If you saw that page before, let’s get straight to the point. That was one of Traditional Google Prank for my favourite day of the year, the ‘April fools Day’. Believe it or not, I even went on to take the questionnaire for being a Virgle Pioneer. It wasn’t my fault really considering the new forays which Google makes each day; I thought this could be true until I got some notoriously funny options for some questions.

That press release on the left side, Open Source Planet (in lines with Google business operations) was all perfectly made to fool me. It was confirmed that I was fooled by Google only after I got the end of the Faq’s.

Earlier Google pranks

It’s very nice on Google’s part to show its fun side each year but I can assure that it can’t fool me this year (I’m waiting for April 1, 2010).

Apart from Virgle, there are some classic Pranks that were so beautifully thought and made. Among them Google TiSP (Free in home wireless broadband), PigeonRank (imitating PageRank), Gmail Paper (postal version of Gmail) and Mentalplex were my favourites.

Now guess what could be this years Prank? I’m betting on something related to Nexus One.
