I hate april fools day

Takes the whole fun out of web surfing if you can’t be sure wether somethings true or not. Some news are easily recognizable hoaxes (like the thing with the ipod video player), others are less clear (like the googlemail thing). I won’t be able to write anything about the stuff i read today for the next few days if i don’t wanna risk to look like a gullible idiot. I once fell for a surprisingly stupid hoax in a magazine and a friend still keeps bugging me with the story (in my own defense i should mention that the magazine was on newsstands around mid-march, easy to fall for). Thank god i have a huge backlog of links i wanna get onto my blog from the last few days.
