Each April 1st, the internet becomes a much more fun place to explore as the denizens, websites and even corporations try to either make you laugh or trick you.
This year is no exception, with Google taking the lead so far:
gBlimp – new ad serving method
Not as subtle as the Display network, but way more targeted if left on its own

Gmail Motion – no more typing
http://mail.google.com/mail/help/motion.html
Google Docs Motion – move like you’ve never moved before
No more back pain from sitting at the computer. Now you can get back pain the old fashioned way

Google Translate for Animals app

LinkedIn Network – check people you may know
Now that’s what I call networking
Get a job at Google – as an autocompleter
Helvetica – Comic Sans.. what’s the difference?
I actually prefer to use comic sans
YouTube turns 100 – a look back to the early days
